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.

View allI'm noticing some changes in the power of my right eye, especially with the spherical and cylindrical measurements. Since I started wearing my new glasses, I've been experiencing immediate pain in my right eye, and it feels a bit blurry. Is this something that will adjust over time, or should I get my eye power checked again? Also, I'm getting headaches. I've got pictures of the old and new prescriptions too. Could you help me figure out what's going on?

I've been struggling with eye pain since the covid year. I spoke with a nurse at the eye hospital who suggested wearing glasses because of my low power of 0.25, but the pain persisted. I can't tolerate bright lights or work on my laptop, especially at night. About six months ago, an eye clinic diagnosed me with a severe eye allergy. I've been on medication courses for 3 weeks, then 2 months, and another 2 months. The pain eases with the meds, but it returns once I stop. Currently, I'm back on a 2-month course taking FLI drops, UV lube, and sodium hyaluronate XL HA, but the pain keeps coming back. Is there any chance this eye allergy can be permanently resolved, or will I have to keep taking these meds non-stop? Should I consider seeing another doctor for a second opinion?

I'm really worried about my daughter. She's got a cylindrical power of 1.25 in her right eye and 1.0 in her left. Is this something serious? Does she have to wear glasses all the time now, or are there ways to treat this? I've heard cylindrical power can get worse over timeis that true? Are there any medicines that could help her out?
Your daughter has mild astigmatism, which is common and generally not serious. Glasses can help correct her vision, and she may need to wear them regularly, especially for activities like reading or watching TV. Astigmatism can change over time, so regular eye check-ups are important. There's no specific medicine to treat it, but glasses or contact lenses can manage it effectively.
