Thank you for your message. At the age of 53, cataract surgery is a common and safe procedure, and today you have very good options for both surgery type and lens selection that can give you clear distance and near vision without always needing glasses.
Best Type of Cataract Surgery
Phacoemulsification (Phaco Surgery):
Most advanced and commonly used technique
Minimally invasive, fast recovery
Done under local anesthesia, with no stitches in most cases
Best Lens Options for Both Distance and Near Vision
Multifocal Intraocular Lens (IOL):
Provides a clear vision for far, intermediate, and near
Reduces or eliminates the need for glasses
Ideal if you want maximum freedom from spectacles
Trifocal IOL (like Alcon PanOptix or Zeiss):
Offers the most natural vision experience
Excellent for people who want to see clearly at all distances
EDOF (Extended Depth of Focus) Lens:
Good for distance and intermediate, with some near vision support
Fewer issues with glare/halos compared to multifocal
Note: Your doctor will help decide the best lens based on your eye condition, lifestyle, and budget.
Important:
Please share any existing health conditions like diabetes or glaucoma, as they may affect lens choice.
A detailed eye scan (biometry) is needed before final lens selection.

Frequent irritation and pain in the right eye can be caused by several factors, such as dry eyes, allergic reactions, conjunctivitis (eye infection), or even foreign particles in the eye. Sometimes, prolonged screen exposure, inadequate sleep, or environmental irritants like dust and pollution may also contribute.
🔎 General advice:
Rinse your eyes gently with clean water.
Limit screen time and get adequate rest.
Wear protective eyewear (like sunglasses) in dusty or polluted environments.
Avoid using over-the-counter eye drops without a proper medical evaluation.
👨⚕️ Note: Since your symptoms are recurring, it’s important to undergo an in-person eye examination. Recommending specific medicines without evaluating the eye can be unsafe and may not address the root cause.
We recommend that you consult an eye specialist (ophthalmologist) at the earliest.
Watery eyes and constant itching are commonly caused by allergic conjunctivitis, dry eyes, or sometimes mild eye infections. These symptoms can also be triggered by dust, pollution, seasonal allergies, or excessive screen time.
👨⚕️ Since the symptoms are persistent, we recommend you consult an eye specialist (ophthalmologist) for a proper eye examination. The doctor may evaluate for:
Allergies or irritants
Conjunctivitis
Dry eye syndrome
Please avoid rubbing your eyes, and try rinsing them gently with clean, cold water. Also, stay away from dusty environments and avoid over-the-counter drops without medical advice.
