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've recently hit the one-month mark since my PTK C3R surgery on my left eye. Before the surgery, I mostly wore contact lenses instead of glasses. Now I'm wondering, is there a specific type or brand of contact lenses I should be using post-C3R surgery?

I had lasik just over two weeks ago and now I'm dealing with a low-grade fever. Is this something I should be worried about? Also, Im experiencing loose motions. Could these symptoms be related to the lasik procedure? Would love some clarity on this.
