Cataract Surgery
Eye specialist suggested cataract surgery for MOTIBINDU for my grand mother..
Grand mother age is 73, and has BP,
What is the right approach for Cataract surgery?
And the counselor suggested lens of RS 9500, 14000, 20000, 25000, 30000
If we go for 9500 and 14000 local lens there is a possibility of getting layer on the cataract in future.
What is the perfect lens to avoid layer on the cataract in the future.
Please advice...

There is no perfect lens except the one you were born with. To make you understand better, think of it like buying car. The difference being that you will buy the car only once in life and requires no further maintenance.
