Cloudiness of the lens of the eye resulting in decreased vision is referred to as a cataract. A person with cataract experiences glare, foggy and blurred vision and sees halos around lights. Cataract may affect one or both the eyes. It is mostly age-related and is largely seen in the elderly. It can occur due to trauma, post surgery or in rare cases may be present at birth. The person complains of photosensitivity (sensitivity to light) and has difficulty reading, driving and recognizing faces due to diminished vision. 
Homeopathy is the safest and natural mode of treatment for cataract. In the early stage, when the cataract starts to develop, these medicines are known to retard clouding of the lens. They are equally helpful in restoring blurred vision. Thus, medicines help avoid surgery and its side effects such as infection, bleeding, and retinal detachment. Homeopathic medicines for cataract are, therefore, beneficial for the opacity of the lens and stops further progression of the disease.

The said cataracts are not at surgery stage. He prescribed for changing present spectacles with new power of glasses.
My problems are

2. When I go in exposed Sun light, light mist is before my eyes. Other places or in the afternoon or in the home, it is not felt.
3. Head lights of vehicles are not distinct, these are somewhat diffused.
4. If I see the Moon in the sky, I sometimes and not always see some illumination around it. Sometimes extended Moon, that is, partial Moon along with the original Moon.
5. I do not recognise known faces at a distance of 20 to 30 feet with my glasses which are changed to new powers of lenses.
6. I can read books, newspapers very well even without spectacles.
7. I can insert string in the eye of a needle with naked eyes.
8. My health is good and do not take medicines. But for last 9 months I am suffering from acidity and vertigo. Now, I feel better and doctor has stopped medicines.
Please also comment, if Cineraria Matritima 3x is taken 3 times a day for at least 3 to 6 months and Cineraria Matritima eye drop of Schwabe Germany make, is use 2 drops three times a for 6 months, will the cataracts dissolve ? I refer it because local Homoeopathy doctor prescribed me so.

Hi, can you please tell me the best homeopathic remedy for a 62 year old man with cataracts due to diabetes. Thank you!
I just found out I have the very beginnings of cataracts. I hadn’t thought about treating with homeopathy till running across this article which says Antimonium Tart is the remedy. Can you explain which potency, dose and duration? Thank you!
Dr. Sharma,
Does Histaminum hydrochloricum work for a stress induced histamine intolerance? It is not allergy, but a condition of Mast Cells Activation Syndrome.
Does it work in people who have histamine overproduction due to exposure to different factors? I have glaucoma, so I am restricted as to what I can take for MAST Cell Syndrome.
Have you written about this in any of your blogs?
Thank you!
Morning,

Dear Dr Sharma,
Thank you for wanting to help 🙂🌻
My sister (45 years) has been blind in one eye since birth. In the other eye she has a prescription of 8.75 and 2 posterior subcapsular cataracts, possibly caused by 25 years on inhaled corticosteroids for asthma and from mostly being outside. The risks of surgery are very great for her so she needs something to heal the cataracts naturally, and to strengthen and protect her eyes and vision.
If you genuinely believe that homeopathy can help her, please could you advise which medicine you think best? If you doubt that it will have a positive impact, please say so as time is of the essence. I read that this type of catatact is the fastest growing and can develop in months. So we can’t afford to invest time and hope in something unlikely to help.
Thank you so much for your guidance.
Best wishes.
