  • there is no such thing as an eye drop that will reverse cataracts.

    the only way to treat cataracts is to have surgery to remove the cloudy lens and replace it with a new artifical lens.

  • no. it takes about 1/2 hour to have the lens replaced with a synthetic lens which will allow you to see better. i,ve had both lenses replaced because of cataracts. simplest operation i ever had. you,re wide awake. no anesthesia except eye drops.you,re off work about two days. that,s it. had one replaced in 2005, and one in 2008. i,m 64. i know have 20/40 vision. which is better than my 20/80 before surgery.
