No it has nothing to do with cataract. Stay long gel can't affect on eye. You can consult me at Lybrate for homoeopathic treatment and further guidance. To improve eye sight take vitamin a supplements. Take food like spinach, carrots, pumpkin etc. You can consult me at Lybrate for homoeopathic treatment and further guidance.
