Question 1

Hey, my 6-month-old baby accidentally scratched his eye with his nails, and now the sclera's turned red. There's no discharge or irritation, and he seems active otherwise. I'm just a little worried and wondering if it could cause any issues down the line. Could you give me some advice?

Accepted Answer

Its good that your baby is active and theres no discharge or irritation. However, its important to monitor the redness closely. If it doesnt improve or if you notice any swelling, discharge, or discomfort, its best to consult a pediatrician for further evaluation.

Question 2

I'm really worried because my dad needs surgery, but he has diabetes. I'm wondering what sugar level should be okay for him to safely have cataract surgery. If the cataract is fully developed, should we go for laser surgery or stick with the manual method? Also, could you recommend the best doctor in Pune who has experience with diabetic patients needing cataract surgery? Is there any record of doctors in Pune who have the highest success rates for these kinds of patients? Lastly, should we consider taking him to Chennai's Sankara Netralaya instead?
