acetone and Cataract

acetone has been researched along with Cataract in 4 studies

methyl ketone : A ketone of formula RC(=O)CH3 (R =/= H).

Cataract: Partial or complete opacity on or in the lens or capsule of one or both eyes, impairing vision or causing blindness. The many kinds of cataract are classified by their morphology (size, shape, location) or etiology (cause and time of occurrence). (Dorland, 27th ed)
