Partially dislocated IOL
My IOL in has been dislocated 15 years after operation in U.K. My Ophthalmologist here is not encouraging surgery because of my age as he thinks operation is complicated and will require 1 hour or more under general anaesthetic. He asked me to explore possibility of a contact lens on top of dislocated IOL for better vision. As I will visit Kolkata during Nov/Dec, I want opinion of an Ophthalmologist in Kolkata whether operation is possible with local anaesthetic and also about contact lens.
