This sounds promising. I was born with a cataract in my right eye. I'm in my early forties now and technically, for all intends and purposes, you could say I'm blind in my right eye (kinda depends on the light intensity). Unfortunately my cataract is difficult to operate on since it's not free floating so they can't easily "scoop" it out. So, an eye-drop that dissolves this thing sounds great.
If they now could also find some eye drop that can dissolve the crap I have floating in my left eye, that would be fantastic!
- akg_67 11y agoDo you have floaters in your left eye? Retina detachment? Your case sounds similar to mine. Recently diagnosed with cataract in right eye. Few years ago, retina detachment in left eye, followed by cataract in left eye, and then losing pupil controlling nerves in left eye during cataract surgery.
- pan69 11y agoTen years ago some eye specialist wanted to operate on my cataract. Apparently there could be complications but according to him "it would be worth the risk". Sounded like a fun project for him. I passed. I'm pretty much used to my crappy vision and I figured I'd wait ten years to see what happens with technology in this field and then suddenly, BOOM, eye drops! Even right now I wouldn't do an operation unless there was a 100% guaranteed no side effects (with the surgeon signing the guarantee with his own blood). Let's wait another five years and see where these eye-drops end up. It's definitely just normal "floaters" in my left eye.
