Although sight is increasingly impaired as a cataract matures,no other damage is done to the eye by waiting.Removal of the cataract will result in improved vision,regardless of how long the cataract has been present.No indication suggests that the client will develop a cataract in the other eye.The other statements are inaccurate.
