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?

is it possible to correct my 1.75 eye power without surgery since I'm only 17 years old
Yes, it is possible to correct a 1.75 diopter (1.75 eye power) without surgery, even at your age. While the most common and permanent solution for vision correction is surgery (like LASIK), there are other options available, including eyeglasses, contact lenses, and even certain treatments that can help slow the progression of myopia (nearsightedness), which is a common cause of needing glasses or contacts. Since you're 17, your eyes may still be developing, and it's worth exploring all options with an eye doctor
