Would you put your eyesight at risk? Eyesight is arguably the most cherished of all our senses and to lose it in part or totally would be catastrophic. And yet for millions of people worldwide suffering from cataracts that is exactly the situation they find themselves in.

Indeed, according to the World Health Organisation (WHO), cataracts are the leading cause of blindness in the world � more than 17 million people around the world are blind because of cataract with cataracts accounting for more than 50% of all cases of blindness. A staggering 28,000 new cases are reported every day....

Most people believe that once a cataract has started to form, surgery is inevitable if they are ever to see clearly again but as the frontiers of science are pushed further, advances in treatment are made and with them has come Can-C, the real alternative to cataract surgery.
