Question 1

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?

Question 2

I've been having some issues with my eyes and vision, and my eye strain is really getting to me. My current prescription is sph 3.5 and cyl 0.75 for both eyes, but it used to be less without any cyl power, just 2.75. I haven't seen an eye doctor for a year and a half, but then three months ago, I had to get new glasses because mine broke. That's when they told me my eye power increased. Back before all the COVID stuff, I was outside a lot, playing cricket and barely using any screens, just reading books. But now, I'm inside all the time, staring at my phone for over 15 hours a day and not eating well either. I've started getting headaches around my eyes, eyebrows, and forehead, and my eyes feel so tired. I'm really trying to get my vision and overall eye health back on track. Any advice on what I can do?

Question 3

I'm new to wearing contact lenses and have been super careful, following all the instructions from my optician. I only wore them for 5 hours today, but now I'm feeling a bit uneasy. One of my eyes feels a bit offthere's some redness and it kind of feels like something's stuck in it. It's not the actual eye, but more like inside the eyelid where I sense it. I even took a picture to see if there's something visible. What should I do about this? How can I make it better?
