Dear lybrate-user, there are treatments in homoeopathy which can postpone the surgical process but a progressive cataract will have to be excised out by laser surgery at the end. You can instill cineraria maritima eye drops (schwabe in alcohol base) in affected eye.
For more you are advised to go to ophthalmic surgeon for modus of operation and types of lenses.

Hello. Blur vision in old age can be due to various reasons, most commonly which we see in clinics being-

Hello. Unfortunately cataract has no cure. It's just treatable surgically only. I understand it must be difficult going for eye surgery in such difficult covid times. But she should get operated at the earliest, otherwise she might completely lose the eyesight (sometimes irreversibly). I am sorry but no drops can cure your problem.
Hope this helps.

Hi. Unfortunately there is no cure for rp as on now. All the medications or inventions are just aimed at improving the already diminished vision or improving the quality of life. For you per se genetic testing isn’t much useful now that you already have the disease.

Hello. It's unfortunate that in such covid time, people like your father cannot access healthcare and get a basic surgery done.
First let me tell you, there is no cure or medical therapy for cataract. The only treatment is surgery. Get the sugar and blood pressure in control at home. Continue his medications. And please get in contact with some nearby eye hospital, so that he gets operated soon. White cataract is a mature cataract (paka hua motiya bind), which if not removed timely will caus...more

Anesthesia is the administration of medications to block or numb pain during a surgical procedure. It is usually provided by a special doctor called an anesthesiologist.
Since cataract surgery is fairly quick and noninvasive, the anesthesia is usually light. The eye can be numbed locally by installing few anesthatic drops or injection, eliminating the need for full sedation most of the time.
So nothing to worry, get counseling with expert before undergoing surgery.
