You have to produce no objection certificate from the the cardiologist as well as from the nephrologist and submit the same to the eye hospital for cataract surgery.

I have done laser cataract surgery for both eyes (first for left eye and again in the right eye after 10 days) in January this year. The cost of Laser Cataract Surgery in Trivandrum is Rs,80,000/- for one eye.

Laser surgery: The doctor guides a machine that uses laser energy to make the incisions and soften the cataract. The rest of the surgery is much like phacoemulsification. Using the laser instead of a knife (scalpel) may speed recovery and be more accurate.
