What’s wrong with the eyes that look white?



Seeing white in the eyes is usually caused by cataracts, iridocyclitis, and central plasma chorioretinopathy.

Cataract: One of the most common causes, it is caused by the clouding of the lens inside the eyeball, which results in the refraction of light being blocked.

Iridocyclitis: the aqueous humor inside the patient’s eye can become cloudy, which can also block light refraction and cause the above symptoms.

Central plasma choroidal retinopathy: patients with edema in the macular area of the retina, which affects the sensing of light, and will also appear to see things foggy, white, and other manifestations.

Seeing things in white can be caused by many reasons, patients must go to the ophthalmology department of the hospital for consultation and examination, after clarifying the specific causes of targeted treatment, so as to avoid delaying the condition.
