Cloudy eyes caused by protein imbalance

Date Time Cloudy eyes caused by protein imbalance Cataracts are the most common eye ailment in humans. However, the exact processes leading to this condition are not fully understood. A team of researchers headed by the Technical University of Munich (TUM) has now discovered that the composition of the protein solution plays a decisive role. Their conclusions are contrary to prevailing opinion in the field. The cells in the lens consist of a highly concentrated protein solution that is normally clear. “When the balance of the proteins in the lens is destroyed, they clump together and the lens becomes cloudy,” says Prof. Johannes Buchner of the Chair of Biotechnology at TUM. This results in the condition known as cataracts.
