Question 1

I'm feeling a bit anxious as a family member is set to have cataract surgery soon. The doctor mentioned we need to choose a lens, but we're not sure which one would be best. They've given us two options: Acrysof IQ Vivity from Alcon or Tecnis Eyhance by Johnson & Johnson Vision. Could you help us figure out which might be the better choice? It's really important to us to get this right.

Accepted Answer

Ophtholmologist

Question 2

Is banana good for eyesight?

Accepted Answer

Eating a banana daily is likely to boost eye health and prevent vision-related diseases. Bananas have carotenoid -- a compound that turn fruits and vegetables red, orange or yellow and are converted into vitamin A, important precursors for eye health -- in the liver

Question 3

My dad takes Ecospirin AV 75 every night, and he's got a cataract surgery scheduled for January 7th. The doctor said to stop taking Ecospirin AV 75 five days before the operation. Does that sound right to you? I just want to make sure it's okay.

Accepted Answer

Yes, it is important to stop Ecospirin AV 75 (aspirin) before cataract surgery as it can increase the risk of bleeding during the procedure. Your father's doctor is following the standard protocol to minimize any potential complications. It is recommended to follow the doctor's advice and discontinue Ecospirin AV 75 as instructed before the surgery.

I'm dealing with some really itchy eyes today, and it feels like I've got a bunch of sand in them. My eyes are super red, and I'm not sure what to do about it. Plus, my head feels really heavy on top. Any ideas on what's going on?

That could be Conjunctivitis, visit Ophthalmologist as soon as possible for appropriate management
