The cost of cataract surgery in India ranges between Rs. 15,000 to Rs. 1,00,000. Price variation can be attributed to type of surgery opted for and location of hospital.
As per our knowledge, there are types of artificial intraocular lens:
Monofocal: If you don’t suffer from astigmatism, then a monofocal lens can be used to correct a single vision range. For example, if you are nearsighted, and have troubles seeing a computer, or even if you are are farsighted, a monofocal lens will efficiently treat either of these problems. Additionally, monofocal lenses don’t have any glare or halos at night, which can make you feel more confident while driving in the dark.
Toric: Toric lenses can be used for patients with astigmatism. They correct near, intermediate, or farsightedness.
Presbyopic-Correcting: Above lenses can only correct one area of your vision, presbyopic correcting can be used to correct two or more vision problems at once.

Good day my eyes seem be twitching constantly

Male | 25

Eye twitching can be annoying. It’s usually caused by being overtired, anxious, or not getting enough rest. Too much coffee or excessive screen time can make it worse. To help, let your eyes relax, get enough sleep, and take breaks from screens. If the twitching persists, it’s best to see an eye doctor.

I have myopia, I wanna go glassfree

Female | 24

Based on the symptoms you are telling, your diagnosis is myopia which means you cannot see things at a distance. Myopia develops due to a phenomenon where the eyeball becomes longer or the cornea is more curved. This is due to the light focusing in front of the retina instead of directly on it. One alternative to lenses that you may want to try is contact lenses or corrective surgery. These methods enable you to see better without wearing spectacles. However, it is important to consult an ophthalmologist for a suitable treatment.

I’m wondering if eyeglasses are needed while my right eye is 20/30 and my left eye is 20/25, but both are 20/20 and my right eye suffers from recurrent corneal erosion.

Male | 27

Both your eyes are mostly fine. A corneal erosion can be dangerous and cause pain and sensitivity to light. Even if you have perfect eyesight, you may need to wear special glasses that will protect your eye from an even greater injury. These glasses can be used to stop more erosions from happening.

Retina detachment in Left eye doctor says hole occurs in retina screen , opretion must compalsary,but after operation results possibility 50% Is results possibility 100% after operation

Male | 70

The detachment of the retina could lead to symptoms such as the perception of flashes of light or having blurred vision. Surgical hole repair in the retina is the procedure that should be carried out. Post-operation, there is a 50% probability that the results will be better. Occasionally, the success rate can be 100%, but it is not a sure thing. However, it is very crucial to stick to your doctor's directions and take proper care of your eye after the surgery.
