Loss of vision

My mother aged 76 years had cataract surgery from a govt hospital on 19th February 2026. Unfortunately she has lost her complete vision after surgery and despite best efforts by doctor nothing could be done. I plead to expert doctors to guide if anything could be done now to restore her vision. Thank you for your help.

Light Sensitivity & Eye Strain Issue

Hello Doctor, I am experiencing significant light sensitivity, especially at night and in bright daylight. At night, exposure to headlights, streetlights, or strong artificial lights causes discomfort in my eyes along with headache on both sides of my head. I feel better indoors under normal lighting. During the day, I can tolerate mild morning sunlight, but harsh afternoon sunlight causes discomfort, and I need to close curtains. I have high screen time (10–12 hours daily) due to work. I am using lubricating eye drops (Eyemist Forte) twice a day, but symptoms persist. I also get negative afterimages which lasts for a minute or more sometimes after exposure to bright light. My previous eye check-up was normal except for amblyopia in my left eye. I would like to know the possible cause (dry eyes, eye strain, or photophobia) and suggested treatment. Thank you!

Slightly pink eye in the morning

Hi, I am an undergraduate student, and currently do not live with my parents due to their job transfers. 3 days back, I had a feeling that my eye felt a bit puffy and woke up to a really minimal amount of yellow pus. Although it does not hurt throughout the day, it still feels a bit weird. Today morning, my left eye was slightly pink with the yellow pus accumulated which I cleaned from a warm cloth. However, these symptoms are only noticeable early morning, otherwise my eye just feels a bit heavy. I'm really terrified as my other eye has now started to feel a bit weird as well. I do have eyedrops prescribed for dry eyes which I have been using every night before bed, but I am really scared. Someone kindly help!
