Research progress of drugs that can control and prevent age-related cataract

The lens is a transparent tissue without vessel, which is mainly composed of a layer of epithelium cells and differentiating fiber cells. With aging, lens opacity can deteriorate vision significantly and even result in blindness, which is termed as age-related cataract(ARC). A fully developed treatm...
