Can anyone explain what sac lac is used for? Also, I'm having trouble reading my prescription; can someone help me figure out what medicine is mentioned? I can't really make out the handwriting.

  1. Sac Lac Usage:

    • Sac Lac stands for "Saccharum Lactis," commonly used as a filler in homeopathic and some pharmaceutical preparations.
    • It is not an active medicine but serves as a carrier for active ingredients.

  2. Prescription Clarification:

    • Contact your doctor or pharmacist to clarify the medication name and purpose.
    • Avoid self-medicating based on unclear handwriting.
    • Share the full prescription or packaging with your healthcare provider for accurate guidance.

If you have symptoms or concerns, feel free to share them for further assistance.

I'm a bit puzzled and could really use some advice. My previous prescription was RE 4.25 and LE 3.75. When I went to Lenskart for new glasses due to scratches on my current pair, they said my right eye power is now 4.5. Given that my power is already high and I don't feel any discomfort, should I actually switch to this new prescription? Also, I've always used regular fiber lenses without the blue ray coating that I got from another store. Is it necessary to switch to blue ray lenses now, especially since I spend the whole day working on a computer? Lastly, I just learned about cylindrical power being different too. Does this mean I need a completely different prescription for my specs?

I'm really worried because my dad needs surgery, but he has diabetes. I'm wondering what sugar level should be okay for him to safely have cataract surgery. If the cataract is fully developed, should we go for laser surgery or stick with the manual method? Also, could you recommend the best doctor in Pune who has experience with diabetic patients needing cataract surgery? Is there any record of doctors in Pune who have the highest success rates for these kinds of patients? Lastly, should we consider taking him to Chennai's Sankara Netralaya instead?

I've been using a new prescription from my doctor for about a month, but my vision in my right eye is still blurry. The doctor mentioned it would take about 7 to 10 days to adjust, but it's already been a month. Any ideas why this might be happening? Do you think I've permanently lost 66 vision?
