Vision loss is not a common risk with squint surgery, but it's important to be aware of potential risks, including temporary vision changes, double vision, and in rare cases, a permanent decrease in vision. There are safer, non-surgical options like vision therapy, glasses, and prism lenses that can address squint without the risks of surgery

my dad needs cataract surgery and I'm confused about whether to go for an Indian lens or an imported one what are the key differences and which one would be better for his condition
Both Indian and imported lenses can be effective for cataract surgery. Imported lenses often have advanced features like better night vision, reduced glare, and longer durability, but they are costlier. Indian lenses have improved a lot and are suitable in most cases. The choice depends on your father’s lifestyle, visual needs, and budget—discuss with the ophthalmologist for personalized advice.
