There are different types of cataracts. They’re classified based on where and how they develop in your eye.
Nuclear cataracts form in the middle of the lens and cause the nucleus, or the center, to become yellow or brown.
Cortical cataracts are wedge-shaped and form around the edges of the nucleus.
Posterior capsular cataracts form faster than the other two types and affect the back of the lens.
Congenital cataracts, which are present at birth or form during a baby’s first year, are less common than age-related cataracts.
Secondary cataracts are caused by disease or medications. Diseases that are linked with the development of cataracts include glaucoma and diabetes. The use of the steroid prednisone and other medications can sometimes lead to cataracts.
Traumatic cataracts develop after an injury to the eye, but it can take several years for this to happen.
Radiation cataracts can form after a person undergoes radiation treatment for cancer.

A cataract is a dense, cloudy area that forms in the lens of the eye. A cataract begins when proteins in the eye form clumps that prevent the lens from sending clear images to the retina. The retina works by converting the light that comes through the lens into signals. It sends the signals to the optic nerve, which carries them to the brain.

It develops slowly and eventually interferes with your vision. You might end up with cataracts in both eyes, but they usually don’t form at the same time. Cataracts are common in older people. Over half of people in the United States have cataracts or have undergone cataract surgery by the time they’re 80 years old, according to the National Eye Institute.

Iritis is inflammation of your iris, the colored part of your eye. It’s also called anterior uveitis.
Your iris is made up of muscular fibers that control how much light enters your pupil, the opening in the center, so you can see clearly. It makes your pupil smaller in bright light and larger in dim light.
Iritis can cause serious problems, including vision loss. See your doctor as soon as possible if you have eye pain, redness, or blurry vision.

Glaucoma is a condition that damages your eye's optic nerve. It gets worse over time. It's often linked to a buildup of pressure inside your eye. Glaucoma tends to run in families. You usually don’t get it until later in life.
The increased pressure in your eye, called intraocular pressure, can damage your optic nerve, which sends images to your brain. If the damage worsens, glaucoma can cause permanent vision loss or even total blindness within a few years.
