Question 3

My father just had surgery for cataract on his left eye today and the doctor prescribed gatiquin tromide plus eye drops. Weve also been told to continue using Brivex, which he was using before the surgery. Is it safe to keep using Brivex on the day of the surgery? I'm a bit worried and would appreciate your advice.
