Certainly! Here are three main types of cataracts:
1. Nuclear Cataract: This type of cataract forms in the center (nucleus) of the lens. It is the most common type of age-related cataract. Nuclear cataracts often develop slowly over time and can cause changes in nearsightedness or even temporary improvement in reading vision in the early stages.
2. Cortical Cataract: Cortical cataracts develop in the lens cortex, the outer layer of the lens. These cataracts start as white, wedge-shaped opacities on the outer edges of the lens and work their way inward. They can cause glare, halos around lights, and difficulties with contrast sensitivity.
3. Posterior Subcapsular Cataract (PSC): PSCs occur at the back of the lens, specifically on the posterior capsule. This type of cataract can develop more rapidly than others and often affects vision in bright light conditions. People with PSCs may experience glare, halos, and difficulty reading small print.
