[ "Incipient cataract", "Hypermature morgagnian cataract", "Intumescent cataract", "Nuclear cataract" ]
C
Both intumescent cataract and hypermature morgagnion cataract can cause glaucoma, although by different mechanism. Intumescent cataract → causes phacomorphic glaucoma due to swelling of lens. Hypermature morgagnion cataract → Phacolytic glaucoma due to leakage of soluble lens protein. However, phacomorphic glaucoma...

What are substances that provide hydrogen ions (h+) and lower ph?
[ "acids", "bases", "proteins", "nutrients" ]
A
Acids are substances that provide hydrogen ions (H+) and lower pH, whereas bases provide hydroxide ions (OH–) and raise pH. The stronger the acid, the more readily it donates H+. For example, hydrochloric acid and lemon juice are very acidic and readily give up H+ when added to water. Conversely, bases are those substa...
