Detected catraict
Dear Team,
Recently my mother was having problem with eyes so I went to check up and the doctor said that it seems that she have a catraict and need to go for xray...
Now with the lockdown I am not able to do the required checkups and all.
Even I can't get her specs...
If you can help me with a eye drop or any medication which till the time help to relax or help us till the treatment is not made..
Thanks

X ray is not needed for cataract diagnosis.
And
No treatment is needed for cataract ,except operation. For operation you can wait till the lockdown is over.
