Traumatic Cataract

Traumatic Cataract

This is a traumatic cataract with an iridodialysis (separation of the iris from it's attachment to the ciliary body) from a blunt injury during childhood. There is an anterior cortical cataract with evidence of capsular compromise and adhesion of the displaced iris to this area. There is also a lens pseudo-coloboma (lessened convexity along the equator) inferotemporally secondary to zonular dehiscence (not shown).

Does it affect the sight?

Yes. It depends on the severity of the trauma but it still affects it (negatively, obviously).
