The Link Between Cataracts and Autoimmune Diseases: Focusing on Multiple Sclerosis
Cataracts, a common eye condition characterized by clouding of the lens, often lead to blurred vision and, if left untreated, can result in significant vision impairment. While cataracts are frequently associated with aging, emerging evidence suggests a potential link between cataracts and autoimmune diseases, particularly Multiple Sclerosis (MS).

If you are a tenant dealing with mold, it is crucial to understand your rights and the proper steps for safe remediation.
Professor Neil Robertson: Leading Neurologist and Researcher
Professor Neil Robertson’s contributions to neurology and neurological research have not only advanced our understanding of complex disorders like multiple sclerosis but also shaped the landscape of neurological healthcare in Wales and beyond. His research and clinical work represent a commitment to both scientific discovery and compassionate care, offering hope to patients and families affected by neurological conditions. As he continues to lead new studies and mentor future neurologists, his impact will undoubtedly continue to be felt across the fields of neurology, genetics, and patient advocacy.
Progressive Multifocal Leukoencephalopathy (PML)
Progressive Multifocal Leukoencephalopathy (PML) is a severe, life-threatening condition that poses a particular risk for MS patients using immunosuppressive therapies. Awareness of the risk factors, regular monitoring, and open communication with healthcare providers are essential for MS patients considering or currently using these medications.
