Results: The prevalence of senile cataract in RSUD Provinsi NTB on January – June 2019 is 192 patients (70,6%). Based on the demographic characteristic, the most prevalent cases is in male (54,7%), aged 56-65 (45,3%), and lived in Mataram (37,5%). Based on the clinical characteristic, most of senile cataract cases is in bilateral of the eyes (60,4%), with uncorrected visual acuity <3/60 (43,3% right eye and 41,8% left eye), best corrected visual acuity <3/60 (42% right eye and 39,2% left eye) <3/60 and immature stage (66,7% right eye and 66,5% left eye) and from 192 patients, 123 of them have a comorbid disease. If it is associated between cataract stages and visual acuity, most of the eyes of cataract patients have an immature stage with moderate visual impairment (visual acuity <6/18-6/60).
