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
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
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.
