Cataract surgery is a very common procedure nowadays. It is the removal of the opaque lens and replacing it with a transparent lens. This has led to people ignoring the restrictions and instructions after discharge. Aftercare is very important in cataract surgery. The aim is to avoid infections and any displacement to the implanted artificial lens. Some tips are:
There is yet another important point to remember. The lens is NOT the only necessary structure for vision in your eyes. Your retina, optic nerve, blood vessels etc should also function well for good vision. Diseases of these structures especially degenerative in nature may lead to blindness. So, before cataract surgery, confirm other structures are functioning well. Otherwise, you may not regain vision even after cataract surgery. Diseases of these structures may develop after your cataract surgery also. So, do not close your eye care chapter after cataract surgery. Especially if you are diabetic or hypertensive. Continue your eye checkups and eye care.
