Doaa Eid Mohamed Abd El Gawad;
Abstract
Cataract is one of the major causes of impaired vision and blindness worldwide affecting more than 17 million people around the world. Cataractogenesis is one of the often seen consequences of aging process, and diabetes mellitus is a major risk factor for the development of cataract at any early age compared to senile cataract.
Recently, considerable attention has been devoted to the search for phytochemical therapeutics. Disease prevention, including lifestyle modification, attention to dietary intake and micronutrient supplementation must become more focused on primary vision care.
Several spices may operate in the prevention of cataract since its flavonoids are capable of preventing multiple mechanisms or etiological factors responsible for the development of cataract.
Saffron is widely used as spices; saffron is golden yellow
