Cataract is the most common condition an ophthalmologist sees in daily practice. However, in the 
examination you are unlikely to be given a straightforward cataract case. When you see a cataract 
case, always look for another sign(s) which may or may not be related to the cataract. For examples: 
posterior subcapsular cataract in retinitis pigmentosa or Fuch's heterochromic cyclitis.
