Brief Summary   Cataract is the most important cause of avoidable blindness affecting 12 to 15 million persons worldwide. Till date an effective non-invasive therapy for immature cataract has not been found. The only treatment of choice is surgery. Owing to the increased incidence rate of immature cataract and possible complications and contraindications of surgery,research for the need for drugs that could effectively tackle the problem has arisen. This present clinical study aims at assessing the effectiveness of Sahadevi eye drops in comparison to placebo on immature cataract.
