second eye cataract removal
Both eyes can be operated on if the vision is diminished and you feel affected by this change in vision. If you are comfortable after one eye has had cataract surgery, it is not mandatory that the other undergo cataract surgery as well. You can wait until you feel your vision is impaired to have cataract surgery on the second eye. Many patients notice the blurring from the unoperated eye very soon after cataract surgery and choose to have surgery on their second eye soon after the first eye. READ MORE
