Actually, we are all on the same page here (you, me, and your vet). Nuclear sclerosis will occur in all of us -- dogs or humans. It is a clouding of the lens that occurs in most all dogs by age 7, and in humans in our 60's. I tell people that if they die before before they develop nuclear sclerotic cataracts, they are dieing young. The vets sometime describe this differently, but any change to the clarity of the lens is by definition a cataract---have discussed this with my brother who is a Vet also. Still, I bet your Daisy has many productive years left, cataract surgery commonly not done on dogs, just not necessary . Hunted my setters as long as they could physically, 12-14 yrs old.
Hope you are having a great season
