Cataracts operation

2017-08-09 06:51:58
My father is diabetic patient with an average count between 250 to 300 pp . Doctors had diagnosed cataracts 3 years before and prescribed cataracts surgery. We are trying for his surgery but unable to do that because of high diabetes. Any advice regarding to control diabetes before going for cataracts surgery will be very helpful for us.

If the control is not optimum consult an endocrinologist/diabetologist. He may be put on Insulin therapy for better control if OHAs are failing to bring the blood glucose levels down.
