This is not normal, the cloudiness is due to swelling and the dark color is likely pigmentation, the eyes response to ongoing irritation and scarring. Please have her assessed to determine the underlying cause such as ulcers, dry eye or inturned eyelids. Urgent treatment is required to relieve pain and restore sight

    Treatment for cataract is surgical only, but this is not likely to be cataract, this is most likely an eye ulcer due to an infection or injury and this requires antibiotic eyedrops and possibly eye serum as well, you must take her to the vet ASAP in order to get it treated.
