just had cataract surgery this morning and was told to use eye drops but my eyes are also watery from a cold can i take cold medicine too or will it interfere with the surgery
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
After cataract surgery, it’s safe to take cold medicine, but be cautious if it contains decongestants, as they can increase blood pressure. It’s best to consult your eye doctor for specific instructions about medications during recovery.

View allMy eyesight is weak with 1.5 D in the left eye and 1 D in the right. What are some natural ways to improve my vision? Also, if I consider laser surgery, how much would it cost?
To naturally improve vision, focus on a balanced diet rich in vitamins A, C, E, and zinc. Regular eye exercises and reducing screen time are also helpful. Laser surgery (like LASIK) for vision correction can cost between ‚Çπ30,000 to ‚Çπ1,00,000 per eye in India, but the exact cost depends on various factors.

My 1-year-old nephew was diagnosed with intermittent exotropia. I'm wondering if patching can really help fix this or if surgery is the only option. How effective are non-surgical treatments for kids this young?
Small inguinal hernias may be managed conservatively, but no proven Ayurvedic/homeopathy cure; untreated hernias may enlarge or strangulate, risking future complications.
