View allI'm getting cataract surgery on Monday but I'm really confused about choosing between Indian lenses and imported lenses. Are Indian lenses just as good or should I go for imported ones? I need some advice to make the right decision
Both Indian and imported lenses can offer excellent outcomes if chosen correctly. Indian lenses like *Aurolab* or *Appasamy* have improved significantly and are cost-effective, while imported ones like *Alcon* or *Zeiss* may offer advanced features like better contrast sensitivity or multifocality. Your choice should depend on your visual needs, lifestyle, and budget—discuss these with your surgeon for the best fit.

My mother is 67 and has been diagnosed with cataracts in both eyes, with surgery recommended. She's a homemaker who reads newspapers and mythology books daily. I'm torn between monofocal and multifocal lenses would the Alcon Vivity lens suit her lifestyle, or should we consider other options? Also, does the season affect cataract surgery outcomes?
