Cataract Healed Group - non-operative solution for cataracts.?

Question

Searching for a non-operative solution for cataracts.
I am 56 F. 8 years ago I was diagnosed with cataracts in both eyes and now my doctor urges me to operate but all in me cries "DO NOT"!
I believe my kind of cataracts is a soft one and might be dealed with in a non intrusive way. The vision is only slightly clouded with more of it in one eye´s inner corner. The dimension of this vision limiting part changes!
Overall I eat quite healthy (no junk food, no white flour or sugar etc.) but do not exercise and as a student and writer I sit at PC too much.
Acupuncture being too panfull for me I am on ayurvedic Triphala course today.

Answer 1

In all likelihood there's nothing other than surgery that will fix the problem.

You also shouldn't be saying anything about you believe your cataracts are soft ones, let someone who actually knows about things like this (i.e. your doctor, not yourself, or me or any of the quacks who will probably tell you to take some useless herbs or distilled water).

If you want a second opinion you'd be better off seeing another doctor, not asking people on the Internet (and this is probably one of the worst places you could get health advise on the Internet).

Answer 2

there is no way to remove a
cataract from your eye without
surgery.
If you catch it before it gets
too bad, you can have it done
with SMALL INCISION surgery.
this can be done with local
anesthetic and there is no
pain involved.
If you wait until the latter
stage, you will need a larger
incision where the entire
cataract is removed all at once.
In the first type, there is a
new(er) type machine that
uses a teensy incision, then
emulsifies the cataract, extracts it and with the same
instrument, installs the new
lens which is curled up and
unfolds automatically. It
"seats" itself and you walk away with 20/20 vision (usually).
