See What I See: Cataracts Virtual Reality Experience

When you have a cataract, the lens of your eye gets cloudy. The view is like looking through dusty glass. Watch this video to explore what life might look like with vision loss caused by cataracts — and if someone you love has cataracts, make sure they're seeing their eye doctor to get the help they need. This video is from See What I See — a virtual reality app created by the National Eye Institute (NEI) that shows what life looks like with common eye diseases like cataracts. The app also features 4 knowledge-based quizzes to check your knowledge about cataracts.
