Don't take this the wrong way but Nuclear Sclerosis IS 100% cataracts. Nuclear Sclerosis is a type of cataract, the most common cataract seen in aging animals/humans.

Almost all cataracts come on very slowly with nuclear sclerosis (clouding of the nucleus of the lens) being by far the most common type of cataract.

When I first brought my now 4 year old lab to the vet as a puppy. The vet told me the dog had a cataract in his right eye, that I should call the person who I bought it from to get my money back. I had already owned the pup for 2 weeks and told the vet my kids and wife would kill me if I returned the dog.

I contacted the seller and asked for a discount and he pretty much told me to get fricked, his vet didn't see any cataracts. The pup I bought was the last one to be sold.

It hasn't seem to have affected my dog as of yet.

Da Hammer is correct. I’ve had several owners of dogs and horses try the topicals and nothing has shrunk except the size of their wallets.

Not what I was told by my vet. Did you actually click the link I provided?
