Abstract:Background: Cataract, a major cause of treatable blindness accounting for 80% of cases, arises from a complex etiology involving various factors. Diabetes notably expedites cataract development, and its potential interaction with electrolyte imbalances further enhances our understanding.
Aims and Objectives: This study aimed to explore the concentrations of electrolytes, specifically sodium (Na⁺) and potassium (K⁺), in both serum and aqueous humor, and their potential implications in the pathogenesis of catara… Show more
