Is there a problem with the black and opaque eyeballs?

Patient's question:

Now the child's eye ball is different from mine, his is opaque and very dark. It seems to be covered with something. No previous treatment and its effect: none. What kind of assistance is needed: is the condition normal...

Doctor's answer:

It may be congenital cataracts. Congenital cataracts are a common eye disease in children. If the opacity of the lens recurs partially or completely within the first year of birth, it is called congenital cataracts. Since there are already factors that cause lens opacity at birth, but the cataract has not yet appeared; and the opacity of the lens occurs within the first year of life, congenital cataracts are also called infantile cataracts.
The condition of your child is abnormal. Congenital cataracts are generally treated with surgery. I suggest you take your child to the hospital for an examination as soon as possible to see how well your child can tolerate surgery, and then formulate a treatment plan early to avoid missing the opportunity for timely treatment. Wishing your child a speedy recovery!
