dr rathore.is right.moreover if IOP is still not controlled then you have the choice to use the Medici or go for surgery.
one more option may be to get laser iridtomy and/or laser trabeculoplasty done before the cat.surgery. consult with your surgeon, but it's better to plan one surgery at.a time .

Looking at your history I would suggest go for Cataract alone for now. Most of the cases dont require a combined Cataract and Glaucoma procedure. Go ahead with your cataract Surgery. It can be done under cashless scheme abywhere where insurance facility is available.
