Loss of vision
My mother aged 76 years had cataract surgery from a govt hospital on 19th February 2026. Unfortunately she has lost her complete vision after surgery and despite best efforts by doctor nothing could be done. I plead to expert doctors to guide if anything could be done now to restore her vision. Thank you for your help.

Hi there. Happy to help. This could have arisen due to various intraoperative or post-operative complications, only the operating surgeon will be able to provide guidance appropriately as we are unaware of the specifics and pre-op diagnosis and retinal status of the patient prior to surgery. Stay calm and collected, demand a reasonable explanation from your consulting doctor and a referral letter to a higher centre or specialist opinion if needed.
