A cataract operation is a common surgical procedure to remove a clouded lens from the eye and replace it with an artificial clear lens, helping to restore clear vision. You're asking a very important question regarding its coverage under the Ayushman Bharat scheme in Ludhiana.

Cataract Operation and Ayushman Bharat Coverage in Ludhiana

• Yes, cataract operations are indeed covered under the Ayushman Bharat Pradhan Mantri Jan Arogya Yojana (PMJAY) scheme.
