Who has had cataract surgery with a bleb?
It’s early days for me to decide what to do re right eye but just wondered who has had
cataract
surgery
in an eye with a bleb? Was it ok? Did it reduce pressure at all?

SECOND CATARACT SURGERY- LEFT EYE
Gmorning all! Had my second cataract done early yesterday morning. Typing this without glasses today. Yay! Op took 15 minutes. This time he injected the antibiotics and Pred instead of sending me home with 3 bottles of eye drops. The injection is into the bottom lid, not the actual eyeball which was

Cataract surgery on an eye with a functioning bleb.
Has anyone had cataract removal on an eye with a functioning bleb? Was it successful? I know that the chance of bleb failure is about 30%.

Vision in the recovery weeks ( and long term) after a trabeculectomy.
I have quite a large area of vision loss in my right eye ( also had a clear lens extraction “same as
cataract
surgery
in reality “) in that eye in preparation for the next surgery ( trabeculectomy now planned for my right eye).

Posterior subcapsular cataracts surgery
I went to a routine eye exam yesterday and after a retinal scan was told I need to have
cataract
surgery
, sooner rather than later, as this type of
cataract
progresses quickly. Anyone have this issue?

Cataract
surgery
booked for Early August so fingers crossed for that one. Meanwhile the GP was away for a fortnight the day after my broken ankle, and read my discharge letter and just looked at me! I told him no more holidays for him.

Upcoming surgery
I recently had
cataract
surgery
on one eye. It was successful, but my surgeon told me afterward that it was very difficult. My RLS kicked in under sedation (even ketamine) so badly that at times my eye disappeared from her view under the microscope!

Midazelam
Hi I am having
cataract
surgery
on Sunday and you are given choice of a sedative or not. The nurse said "they usually " use Midazelam -obviously anything offered if i am unsure I will go without it. Does anyone know if Midazelam is RLS safe ?

Cataract surgery
Hallo all What are your experiences of
cataract
surgery
with AMD? I saw my consultant in the glaucoma clinic yesterday (I am a suspect narrow angles). I also have one wet, one dry eye. I have injections in my wet eye, currently been 10 weeks since the last one.

SLT after a cataract op
Hi all looking to determine if anyone has gone through an SLT after a
cataract
surgery
. Key question is whether the laser can operate through an artificial lens. I am 43 and weighing up a trabeculectomy vs an implant (preserflow is what is being pushed).

Cataract surgery and anticoagulants
I'll be having
cataract
surgery
soon and I'm wondering if any of you were told to discontinue anticoagulants before the procedure. I haven't received any instructions yet regarding medications but I'm just curious as to what to expect.
