CATARACT SURGERY

A one-page care plan for patients having CATARACT SURGERY, covering Purpose, Prevention & Protection, Expectations & Execution, Next Steps, Consistency, Clarity & Care, Indications and Lifestyle & Long-Term Success.

In this plan

  1. Purpose, Prevention & Protection

    • I know surgery may help when cloudy vision affects reading, driving, work, or other daily activities.
    • I review the benefits, lens choices, need for glasses, risks, alternatives, and what may happen if I wait.
    • I complete my eye measurements and follow instructions for contacts, eye drops, and eyelid cleaning
    • I report my allergies and all medicines, including blood thinners and diabetes or weight-loss drugs; I change them only if told.
