The research it is based upon;
"Statin Use and Risk for Cataract: A Nested Case-Control Study of Two Populations in Canada and the United States," by Stephanie J. Wise MD, Nawaaz A. Nathoo MD, Mahyar Etminan PharmD, MSc, Frederick S. Mikelberg MD, FRCSC, and G. B. John Mancini MD, FRCPC, FACP, FACC: dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.cjca.2014.08.020.
