Cataract removal is a completely safe procedure which is done on an outpatient basis which takes about an hour or less to perform. In this procedure, eye drops are put inside the eye to dilate the pupil and numb the area around. Post this, the clouded lens from the patient's eye is removed which is replaced with an intraocular lens. Once the surgery is done, the patient can get back home. But it is advised that the patient shouldn't drive, or perform activities like bending, lifting etc. for about one week after the surgery.
