Answer to Question 1

B, C, D, E
A cataract is opacity of the lens that produces an effect similar to one a person would get when looking through a sheet of falling water. A cataract causes a blurring of vision because the lens, which is normally transparent, becomes cloudy and opaque. Nystagmus is not a symptom of a cataract. All other options are classic symptoms of a person with a developing cataract.

Answer to Question 2

B
Pharyngitis (sore throat) will be treated with an antibiotic only if the infection is deemed bacterial in etiology. Protozoa, viruses, and fungi do not respond to antibiotics.
