Hello Sir,
My father age 62. He has Dialectics (normal of 136 having under insulin injection), High BP and having normal (140/80) under medication, Asthma under control taking Budament 400, Earlier report on 30th oct 2013 Micral 77.526 mg/L and Albumin Present +.
Earlier his right eye was on slight cataract. But suddenly on 6th Jan 2014, his left eye vision was cloudy and after consul to eye specialist, he said it is Unusual and Sudden Cataract, a cloud like substance on the lens. And for him it is rare case.
He told us for surgery. But is there any alternate as medicine to remove this Cloudy vision ???
Please prescribe any medicine to remove the cloud substance from the lens.

Hello
It seems from the history that your father is known diabetic and he is on treatment with insulin for diabetes.
It seems his vision in left eye has become sudden cloudy and this can be diabetic cataract.
The one characteristic feature of diabetic cataract is it progresses in less than 24 hours. The treatment option is by surgery for cataract extraction. There is no medical treatment available.
However the diabetes status should be controlled before surgery.
Thank you
