Yes. People with diabetes have a higher risk of developing cataracts than people without diabetes. To treat cataract, you can go thru a cataract surgery which has a 98 per cent success rate in restoring vision. The day surgery usually takes less than an hour and you will be able to discharge on the same day.

yes can lead to cataracts pretty quickly, i have diabetes for 2 years now and developed cataracts within 6 months of diagnosis of diabetes. if you have diabetes you need an eye exam yearly, the only way to correct cataracts is lens replacement, this is a done on an out patient procedure . insurance also covers this condition,

Yes, once cataracts form the process is irreversable. Cataract surgery is the only real treatment for the condition. The lens replacement surgery is both safe and effective, it is in my humble opinion one of the true miracles of medicine.
