My dad takes Ecospirin AV 75 every night, and he's got a cataract surgery scheduled for January 7th. The doctor said to stop taking Ecospirin AV 75 five days before the operation. Does that sound right to you? I just want to make sure it's okay.

Yes, it is important to stop Ecospirin AV 75 (aspirin) before cataract surgery as it can increase the risk of bleeding during the procedure. Your father's doctor is following the standard protocol to minimize any potential complications. It is recommended to follow the doctor's advice and discontinue Ecospirin AV 75 as instructed before the surgery.

My father just had surgery for cataract on his left eye today and the doctor prescribed gatiquin tromide plus eye drops. Weve also been told to continue using Brivex, which he was using before the surgery. Is it safe to keep using Brivex on the day of the surgery? I'm a bit worried and would appreciate your advice.
Yes you can use it no problem
