Temporary measure before cataract surger
After eye checkup , doctor suggested.. Right eye needs cataract surgery as it's fully developed.
My question is he can't have surgery for 2 weeks for some other reason..Till then could you please prescribe any eye drops as a temporary measure till he gets cataract done after 15 days. He now has blurry vision and has trouble watching TV for longer time and has reading difficulty.He has also lost his spectacles.Will a new spectacle or drops help for 15 days.?

Vision will not improve with glass or drops. He'll have to get cataract surgery done at his convenience.

Fully developed catract would not improve on refraction.
No eye drop can reduce blurry vision for this cause.

You can wait for 15days for cataract surgery, but you have to manage with the blurry vision till then.
