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.

Could you offer some advice?

I'm worried about my 3-year-old daughter's right eye. It sometimes appears to have a squint, but it's not always noticeable and we only catch it if we're observing really closely. What could be causing this, and what kind of solutions should we be considering? Also, could you recommend a good hospital with an orthoptist near HSR Layout where we could get it checked out?
