What causes cataracts in babies and children?

Cataract, which is mostly seen in advanced ages, ie in the 60s, can also be seen in infancy.

Cataracts encountered in infancy can be congenital or can occur in the first years of life.

Infection of the mother during pregnancy and the medications she used during pregnancy are the main reasons. Underlining, it should be noted that sometimes even for no reason, some children may still have congenital cataracts.

Symptoms;

  • One pupil different from another
  • White and dull eyes with cataracts
