Detailed explanation-1: -Posterior subcapsular cataract (PSC) is a fast-growing opacity in the rear of the natural lens. This cataract is most common in people who take steroids or have diabetes. PSC symptoms can develop over a few months. They include light sensitivity, glare and decreased vision, especially at near.
Detailed explanation-2: -In general, nuclear cataracts cause more significant impairment on distance vision than near vision. As a nuclear cataract reaches advanced stages, it can make it difficult for the patient to distinguish between different shades of color.
Detailed explanation-3: -Trauma-related cataracts are typically the most fast-growing type of cataracts. Radiation: Radiation-related cataracts, sometimes listed under trauma-related cataracts, occur after the lens has been exposed to radiation.
