A Cataract Surgery may cost you anywhere from around Rs 25,000 to Rs 35,000 per eye. But, this should not be considered as an absolute cost. The overall cost will vary from person to person depending on a number of factors.
The various factors that determine the cost of Cataract Surgery in Jaipur are as follows:
Due to safety reasons, doctors usually do not perform Cataract Surgery in both eyes at once to ensure that the patient can see from one eye at least. The doctor will advise waiting for at least a month before undergoing Cataract Surgery in the second eye. The waiting period also gives the first eye enough time to heal from the after-effects of the surgery.

By far, there are no medical or non-surgical treatments available to treat cataracts. The only effective and long lasting treatment is by undergoing a Cataract Surgery that involves the replacement of the natural lens of the eye with an artificial lens.
It is highly unlikely for you to need glasses for a clear vision if you opt for premium cataract lenses [IOLs] that address cataracts and refractive errors. However this also depends on the type of lens implants you get. In certain cases, patients use standard IOLs or monofocal IOLs. In such cases, you will have to wear glasses to have a distinctive view of different distances.
Usually, Ophthalmologists recommend patients take proper rest for 1 to 3 days after undergoing Cataract Surgery. Depending upon your overall health condition, the doctor will provide you with an estimate of how much rest you will need after the procedure.
No. There is no other treatment method available for cataracts. It is an irreversible process that cannot be solved with the help of medications. Thus, you will need surgical treatment to cure cataracts permanently.
No. Cataract surgery is not painful at all, thanks to the numbing eye drops that are used before the procedure. You won’t feel any kind of sensations until the effects of these drops wear off after a few hours and the surgery will be completed.

An immature cataract is a cataract that is incomplete, i.e., the clouding on the lens is not complete yet and the cortex is also clear. A mature cataract is one that is completely opaque. It is also known as a white cataract.
Yes. It is normal for the eye to appear red after cataract surgery. You may also feel other symptoms like grittiness or itchiness in the eye with some fluid discharge. These are common symptoms that will go away on their own as your eyes heal after the surgery.
It cannot be said clearly which lens will be better for a specific person as every eye is different. In some people, Indian cataract lenses may be more suitable whereas, in others, imported cataract lenses may be the ideal choice. Your doctor will help you to understand the differences between Indian and imported lenses so that you can determine which lens is best for you.
A presenile cataract is the one in which the opacification of the lens or capsule occurs before the age of 40 years and all the known causes of cataracts have been ruled out.
Diabetes is known to cause cataracts and other eye problems as well. Unchecked diabetes elevates the glucose levels in the body, including the glucose present in the aqueous humor and the lens. The lens has an enzyme that automatically converts glucose to sorbitol which can build up in the lens over time, making it opaque.
Normally, the doctor will advise you to avoid cooking for at least one week after having cataract surgery. Your eyes will be more sensitive after the procedure. Therefore, it is necessary to avoid all activities that can cause stress on the eyes.
ICL (Implantable Collamer Lens) surgery is done for correction of refractive errors and cataract surgery is done to treat cataracts, i.e., cloudiness of the natural eye lens. While ICL surgery involves implanting a lens to bend the light correctly on the retina to clear the vision, cataract surgery involves replacing the natural eye lens with an artificial lens. To learn more about the clear differences between these two procedures, it will be better to talk to a professional.

The doctor does an accurate diagnosis to determine the appropriate power of the IOL and provide desired results to the patient in terms of refractive outcomes after the surgery.
