My dad needs cataract surgery and we're stuck on choosing the right lens. We were considering the trifocal Indian lens (Tridiff TF) but heard imported ones like Zeiss TF might be better. The cost with imported lenses is double though. Is the difference in quality worth the extra money or are Indian lenses just as good?

I've been noticing eye floaters for the past two years and it's really bothering me. Is there any way to reduce or get rid of them? Also, my power is -2.50 in both eyes can I improve my eyesight naturally to stop wearing glasses without surgery?

I had PRK surgery 4 months ago and my right eye is 66 vision while the left is 69. With pinhole, the left eye goes to 66. My doctor found a scratch on the corneal stroma in my left eye and prescribed fluorometholone drops with lubricants. I've been using them for 2 months but my vision isn't improving to match the right eye. Why isn't it getting better and what else can be done?

After PRK surgery, if your vision hasn‚Äôt improved, the cause might be related to the corneal scratch or dry eye. Further treatments like additional lubrication, steroids, or corrective measures may be required.
