Which of the following is usually the first symptom of a cataract that the nurse would expect a patient to report during assessment?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Blurring of vision is typically the first symptom of a cataract that the nurse would expect a patient to report during assessment. As a cataract develops, it causes clouding of the eye's lens, leading to a decrease in the clarity of vision. This blurriness can progress over time, impacting the patient's ability to see clearly. Other symptoms such as glare sensitivity, poor night vision, double vision, and color fading may also be present as the cataract progresses. Dry eyes, eye pain, and loss of peripheral vision are not typically the initial symptoms associated with cataracts.
