Answer to Question 1

3. Cataracts develop at different rates, so one eye will be more affected than the other..

Rationale:
The nurse should respond that cataracts tend to occur in both eyes and develop at different rates, and one cataract generally matures more rapidly than the other. The nurse should not tell the client that the physician made an error or that the physician is the only one who can tell if the client has a cataract in the left eye. The nurse should not tell the client not to worry until vision is lost in the left eye.

Answer to Question 2

2. Dark green vegetables, lean beef, and eggs

Rationale:
To promote a healthy pregnancy, women planning to attempt conception are encouraged to increase their daily intake of folic acid. This will reduce the incidence of neural tube defects. Milk, potatoes, and tomatoes are sources of vitamin B6. Liver and legumes provide a source of biotin. Citrus fruits provide vitamin C, while whole grains are a source of folic acid, yeast bread is a source of panotothenic acid, and milk is a source of calcium and vitamin D.
