My 72-year-old dad is scheduled for cataract surgery soon and has been regularly taking ecosprin. His cardiologist advised continuing it during the surgery since they won't be touching any nerves. Is it really safe to keep taking ecosprin before and after the cataract procedure?

I had squint surgery when I was 12 because my right eye had poor vision and a noticeable squint. Now my eye seems to have drifted around 25 degrees does this mean my squint is coming back and can I get a second surgery to fix it?
Squint recurrence timing varies by type. Esotropia (inward-turning eye) typically shows signs of recurrence within 1-2 years post-surgery. Exotropia (outward-turning eye) often demonstrates a more gradual drift, becoming noticeable 3-5 years after surgery

I've had a chalazion on my left upper eyelid for about 3 weeks now. I've been using CIPZEN D for the last 5 days and it's gotten a lot smaller, but there's still a tiny lump left. Should I keep taking the meds or is there an ointment that can help it go away completely? I really don't want to go for surgery.
eye drops are advised ,for severe cases surgical excision is advised to the pt.
