My mom is 50 and needs cataract surgery but she's also dealing with tooth pain right now. Is it safe to proceed with the eye surgery or should we address the dental issue first?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Cataract surgery can usually proceed but active dental infection should be treated first to avoid complications.
Dr. Dhankecha Suggests...
Consult a Ophthalmologist

My cousin has a mild squint in her right eye less than 5 degrees. Her local doctor said surgery isn't needed for such a small angle, but I'm curious if there are other ways to fix or improve it. What options are out there besides surgery?
ophthal opinion is advised to the patient.

I have 3D myopia in both eyes and I've heard people say myopia can be reduced naturally without surgery. Some claim they lowered their prescription by wearing glasses with 0.25D less power than needed and doing eye exercises like the 20-20-20 rule. Is there any truth to this? Can myopia improve even slightly without surgery?
High myopia and exercises aren’t proven to reduce myopia;specialized slow-progress lenses and lifestyle changes may stabilize vision, but corrections don’t reverse it.
