My mom needs cataract surgery but her ECG came back abnormal is it still safe for her to go through with the procedure? What should we consider before moving forward?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
An abnormal ECG before cataract surgery requires careful evaluation. It's crucial to consult with a cardiologist to assess the risk of cardiac complications during and after the procedure. The ophthalmologist and cardiologist will work together to determine if the surgery is safe and what precautions, if any, are needed
