I've been diagnosed with a scar on my retina in my right eye and I'm really worried about it. Can this be fixed with surgery or are there other treatment options available? What does this mean for my vision long-term?

My mom is scheduled for cataract surgery on her right eye tomorrow and the surgeon prescribed VIGADEXA eye drops but didn't specify which eye to use them on or how many drops to apply since only her right eye is being operated on Can you clarify the correct way to use them
Use Vigadexa 1 drop in the operated (right) eye 4x/day as directed—confirm with the doctor on post-op day 1.
