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 a little worried because I'm 25 and dealing with some health issues. I've been noticing more and more eye floaters this past month, but my ophthalmologist says my eyes are fine after doing an OCT. They suggested I take Vitreon sachets every day for 30 days. But if everything's supposed to be okay, why are my floaters getting worse every day? I don't see any flashes, just lots of floaters that look like black dots or wavy lines. Could something else be going on?
Its reassuring that your OCT report is normal, and increasing floaters without flashes often indicate age-related vitreous changes, which are common but harmless. Since you have high blood pressure, ensure it's well-controlled as it can affect eye health; continue Vitreon as prescribed and follow up if symptoms worsen.

Can anyone explain what sac lac is used for? Also, I'm having trouble reading my prescription; can someone help me figure out what medicine is mentioned? I can't really make out the handwriting.

I'm experiencing some pain in my left eyebrow. I had nasal congestion recently, and yesterday I took a painkiller which helped, but I'm worried because the pain has returned. I recently had a health checkup, and everything seemed fine. I also have a vision of 6.5. Could the vision issue be related to this pain, or is it something else I should be concerned about? What do you think could be causing it?
