The Cause of Cataracts and HOW to prevent and heal the damage.
Did you know that our eyes work similar to those of cats only not as prominent?
Using this picture, you can clearly see how wide cat's pupils open up.
Well ladies and gentlemen human eyes are not that much different. Our eyes are designed to also see at night in the dark. How else were our Ancestors able to peruse the world at night? I mean thats why pirates wore eye patches so that one eye would be able to see into the night, removing the patch during night time, or so I read they would cover their 'day eye' at night.
So how does this night vision relate to cataracts?
Well during the daytime your eyes go into 'relaxation mode', the pupil relaxes during the day. Because it requires less effort to maintain vision throughout the day, the pupil is essentially the heart of night vision, because it naturally determines the amount of light required to provide you vision of your environment.
So what would create unbalance in this natural order of one's own eyes? Sunglasses?
Well its simple if you wear sunglasses during the day you are simulating a night environment. So the pupils in your eyes are forced to expand, excuse the pun but it doesnt happen over night. It occurs over long periods of time. So if you are wearing sunglasses during the day right up until night then the pupils are forced to remain in a similar state until next light, BEFORE you return the glasses again.
So now that you know the cause here are the means to prevent further harm/daamage of your eyes.
Stop wearing sunglasses
How to heal?
There are four solutions:
1 - Watching a sunrise but watching before the sun appears beyond the horizon is key. Keep staring until the sun does aappear, if you feel a burn sensation that is your eyes working out, to sustain that relaxed state position. Like any muscle in your body don't over do it.
2 - If you find the mornings are often cloudy then use sunglasses and stare into the sun at its highest peak which is the apex of the sky. I know its a contradiction. However if you are literally staring into the heart of the sun then you are creating the eyes to go into a relaxed state with the sunglasses on. OR if its a cloudy day during the lunch hour look up. Cloudy days are not as useful as peering into the sun with sunglasses
3 - Staring into a lightbult (NOT the pulsating halogen) while on, will achieve the same effect. The brighter the light the better, and you will achieve the same results covered in solution No. 1. Not as affective as No.1 But achieves the same result regardless
There is a 4th just unsure its validity of it where it invloves a Gazebo with filtered walls to allow a certain amount of sun in.

Cat Vision Vs. Human Vision
The biggest difference between human vision and cat vision is the retina. Cats have a high concentration of rod receptors and a low concentration of cone receptors. Humans have the opposite, which is why we can’t see as well at night but can detect colours better.
Cats can’t see fine detail or rich colour, but have a superior ability to see in the dark because of the high number of rods in their retina that are sensitive to dim light. As a result, cats can see using roughly one-sixth the amount light that people need.
It’s a common misconception that cats can’t see any colours, only shades of grey. Humans are known as trichromats, meaning they have three kinds of cones that allow them to see red, green, and blue. Cats are also thought to be trichromats, but not in the same way that humans are. A cat’s vision is similar to a human who is colour blind. They can see shades of blue and green, but reds and pinks can be confusing. These may appear more green, while purple can look like another shade of blue.
