View allI'm really concerned because I had ICL surgery about two months ago and now my IOP readings are 1416 with GAT and 2325 with NCT. I've been experiencing eye pain like something sharp is poking my eye, and I've also been getting headaches. Do you think I should consider getting the ICL removed?

I'm really worried about my dad. He's been a heart patient and even had bypass surgery about five years ago. He's been on blood thinners ever since. Now he's dealing with cataracts and the eye doctors are saying he should stop his blood thinners for a week before the surgery. I'm not sure about this advice. Is it really necessary to stop taking those medicines? And if he does stop, could it cause any problems or risks for his heart condition?
For patients undergoing cataract surgery who are on blood thinners, it is important to consult with both the cardiologist and the ophthalmologist to determine the best course of action. Stopping blood thinners can increase the risk of blood clots and other complications during surgery. However, in some cases, the ophthalmologist may recommend temporarily stopping the blood thinner to reduce the risk of bleeding during the surgery. If the ophthalmologist has recommended stopping the blood thinner for a week before the cataract surgery, it is important to follow their advice. They may have specific protocols in place to minimize the risk of bleeding during the procedure. It is crucial to discuss this decision with both the cardiologist and the ophthalmologist to ensure the safest outcome for your father. I don't know.

Do you happen to know if the eye color-changing product iCOLOUR is actually safe to use? I'm a bit worried about the potential risks, like could it make someone go blind? And if it does change eye color, how long would that even last?
iCOLOUR and similar products that claim to change eye color can carry risks, including potential eye damage or infection, as they alter the natural pigmentation of the iris. It's important to consult an eye specialist before using such products to ensure safety. The effects may not be permanent and can last only for a few months to a year, depending on the product.
