natural lens. As the lens becomes less transparent, people may experience blurry or hazy vision, increased sensitivity to light, faded colors, or difficulty seeing at night.

A Simple Ginger Drink
See more on the next pageIf you enjoy ginger, you can make a simple beverage as part of a healthy diet.
Ingredients:
1–2 thin slices of fresh ginger
1 cup of hot water
A squeeze of lemon, if desired
Method:
Slice the ginger thinly.
Add it to hot water.
Allow it to steep for several minutes.
Remove the ginger.
Add a little lemon for flavor if you like.
This drink can be refreshing, but it should be viewedas a dietary beverage rather than a treatment for cataracts.
