Question 1 of 5
A nurse is caring for a client who has a cloudy, opaque area over the lens of one eye. The nurse should identify that this is a manifestation of which of the following visual impairments?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A: Cataracts. Cataracts cause a cloudy, opaque area over the lens of the eye, leading to blurred vision. This occurs due to the clouding of the lens from protein buildup. Diabetic retinopathy, choice B, involves damage to blood vessels in the retina due to diabetes. Macular degeneration, choice C, affects the central part of the retina leading to distortion or loss of central vision. Glaucoma, choice D, is characterized by increased pressure within the eye damaging the optic nerve. In this scenario, the cloudy, opaque area over the lens specifically points towards cataracts, making it the correct choice.
