Subject: Cataracts or fluid in eye

We have at the shelter a 6.5 year old male, Pepe, that
appears to have had cataracts on both eyes. However,
I recently noticed that the cloudiness over the right
eye has faded.

I asked my vet, and he assured me that cataracts just
don't go away, and that it is possibly fluid. If this
is fluid, what would cause it? (Would a picture
help?)

My question is, would there be any way to treat him if
this cloudiness does return, or to prevent it's
return?

By the way, Dr. Williams, this afternoon he was
singing "I Only Have Eyes For You"!
