A recent newsmax article suggests that use of statins is linked to cataracts. However more research is needed. This was found out in the department of Optometry and Visual Science at University of Waterloo in Ontario Canada.
The study involved more than 6400 patients and of that 450 had type 2 diabetes. The risk factor studied were Type 2 diabetes and use of statins.
There was an overlap between diabetes and use of statins. But those who used statins developed cataracts at an earlier age. For the defender of statins the word was out: do not be alarmed by these findings. The more important thing is to control the risk of heart disease.

Cataract is eye problem and that can be found more in those people who have age over 50. They need treatment in short time otherwise it can create serious problem.

Why would they allow to continue selling statins if it has too many side effects? This is another side effect of this drug. This drug is scary.
