The thyroid is a small, butterfly-shaped gland located at the base of your neck. It may be tiny, but don’t underestimate its power. This little gland produces hormones primarily thyroxine (T4) and triiodothyronine (T3) which regulate the body's metabolism. Essentially, the thyroid is like the thermostat of your body, managing your energy usage, heartbeat, body temperature, and more.
A cataract is a progressive, painless clouding of the natural, internal lens of the eye. It begins when proteins in the eye form clumps that prevent the lens from sending clear images to the retina. The retina works by converting the light that comes through the lens into signals. It sends the signals to the optic nerve, which carries them to the brain. For people who have cataracts, seeing through cloudy lenses is a bit like looking through a frosty or fogged-up window.
