    Well, generally speaking, you should know that cataracts occur when there is a buildup of protein in the lens that makes it cloudy. When someone suffers it, it will just prevent light from passing clearly through the lens. And that can be very annoying. And what is serious is that it can just lead to blindness. If your grandfather has got it, unfortunately, he has to take the cataract surgery, or it can be cured. And of course, he can try lutein which can be good for cataracts patients. But lutein can not cure it.
