Cataract surgery
My father aged 69 years is a diabetic patient. Last 2 months back he had undergone angioplasty as well as minor leg surgery. Now he is also having problem with his eye. Doctor has suggested cataract surgery. But asked for a fitness report for his diabetes. His sugar was high which is getting under control now. My doubt is after getting fitness certificate within how many days he should undergo cataract surgery?
