The correct answer is: Lens
Cataract affects the lens in the eye. It occurs due to the clouding of the crystalline lens and prevents light and image from reaching the retina. A cataract makes a person vision blurry and less colourful. There is partial or complete loss of vision due to the lens becoming milky and cloudy.
