What Can Cause Cataracts?

Hello, my mom is feeling heaviness and burning sensationin her eyes. She was informed she has cataracts, but says her eyesight has not been affected at all. Are the previous symptoms caused by the cataracts? Should she have the surgery already or can she wait until it begins affecting her vision? She is a very healthy 83 year old. Thank you.
