FAQ ABOUT DIABETIC CLINIC IN GURGAON


Cataract is the eye related problem, which occurs due to presence of a cloudy or opaque natural lens. It is in most cases an age related problem, simply like greying of your hair.
Ageing is the most frequently encountered cause of cataract. Other causes include systemic diseases like Diabetes Mellitus, Trauma or injury, Inflammation of the eye, certain metabolic diseases, other congenital and developmental causes, and many more.
No, cataract in the eye leads to obstruction or “clouding” of visual axis, thereby making your vision dull or diminished. Currently no medications or glasses can reverse these changes in the lens.
Cataract surgery is a planned procedure in most cases.
Our doctors will be monitoring your visual acuity (done in ideal conditions) and your symptoms, then suggest a probable time frame for the surgery. Cataract doesn’t only reduce our vision it also affects the contrast or clarity of vision which usually is a complaint with our patients, and an indication for surgery.

Before surgery you will have to get a list of general investigations done, which would give us an idea on your general body health status at the time of surgery. Your systemic problems like hypertension or diabetes have to be under check prior and after the surgery.

After surgery, you need to be able to follow your discharge summary and apply drops to the operated eye as advised. Also, have to avoid dust, water and crowded places for atleast 1-2 Weeks after surgery.

For further questions on the surgery, precautions and other topics please feel free to discuss with your doctor.
