Honest information

Safety & risks

Cataract surgery is generally very safe, but like all surgeries, it carries some risks.

Rare

Infection

Risk is under 1% with proper antibiotic use. Signs: increased redness, pain, or discharge.

Expected

Swelling

Mild swelling of the cornea may occur, typically resolving within a few days.

Expected

Vision changes

Temporary blurriness or glare can occur but usually improves as the eye heals.

Rare

Retinal detachment

A rare but serious complication that would require additional surgery.

Uncommon

Secondary cataract

Cloudiness of the lens capsule can develop months to years later, treated with a simple laser procedure.

If something concerns you at home

After returning home: use prescribed eye drops as instructed, avoid rubbing the eye, wear protective eyewear as advised, and attend all follow-up appointments.

24/7 coordinator WhatsApp · Ophthalmologist available for video assessment · Emergency: local A&E for signs of severe infection or vision changes
