My mother has cataract in her left eye. I am scared about cataract surgery, because my colleague's mother suffered a kidney failure after undergoing cataract surgery . Some people also say that cataract surgery leads to some side effects like kidney failure in women. Please clarify my doubts. Is there an alternative to surgery? My mother does not have any disease except low BP.

Question

Your doubts are totally unfounded. Cataract surgery has no adverse effects on the kidney or else where in the body. There is no known medical cure for cataract. Surgery is the only answer.
