Posterior Subcapsular cataract is a type of cataract, where in, there is opacification in the posterior or back portion of the crystalline lens. This type of cataract can occur alone or in combination with other types of cataracts as well. But the primary occurrence posterior Subcapsular cataract per se is less.
A posterior subcapsular cataract is a distinctive, often very sharply demarcated opacity, discoid in shape and adjacent and merging with the posterior capsule. This cataract represents degenerative lens fibers that have developed abnormally.
A posterior subcapsular cataract starts as a small, opaque area that usually forms near the back of the lens, right in the path of light. A posterior subcapsular cataract often interferes with your reading vision, reduces your vision in bright light, and causes glare or halos around lights at night.

Adult patients with PPCs may present with symptoms of glare and haloes despite “normal” Snellen visual acuity. Because of their central location, even small posterior polar cataracts may be visually significant with worse symptoms under bright light or miotic conditions (Figure 1).
Posterior subcapsular cataract (PSC) is a fast-growing opacity in the rear of the natural lens. This cataract is most common in people who take steroids or have diabetes. PSC symptoms can develop over a few months. They include light sensitivity, glare and decreased vision, especially at near.
Anterior subcapsular cataract lies directly under the lens capsule and is associated with fibrous metaplasia of the lens epithelium. Posterior subcapsular opacity lies just in front of the posterior capsule and has a granular or plaque-like appearance on oblique slit lamp biomicroscopy (Fig.
