my father in law lost an eye due to infection after a routine cataract surgery. i wonder if it was included in the percentages of complications or not?

Don't push surgery on CureZone.

According to Web MD, cataract surgery is successful for 85 to 92 out of 100 patients. On your clinic's website, you say you have a 99.9% success rate. But even if that were true, which I doubt, you have not "cured" cataract in even one of these patients. Because you did not want to face the challenge of really curing cataract and preserving our natural lens, instead of learning how to repair it, you cowardly ran away from the problem and learnt how to destroy it, remove it and replace it with an inferior plastic imitation.
I see that you are from India. Your cowardly choice not only brings shame and disgrace upon yourself, but also dishonors your people and your culture, which has a long Ayurvedic tradition of treating the body noninvasively and successfully. On this website there is currently much discussion about castor oil for cataracts, which is also part of the Ayurvedic tradition, and there are very good scientific reasons why castor oil can cure cataract. In addition to that, there are many other Ayurvedic remedies from your own culture which you have chosen to ignore rather than explore, doubtless because you can make so much more money out of surgery than you can from them.

An American who was previously a cataract surgeon with a track record of 10,000 surgeries, has now turned completely around, and is using every natural means at his disposal, including color therapy and homeopathy, to cure cataract. Ask yourself why.

As you know very well, your profession does not balk at giving the operation to babies:
Quote: "Infants have the highest risk (almost 100%) for cloudiness in the back portion of the lens capsule following cataract surgery. If posterior capsule opacification develops after cataract surgery, a laser procedure or a vitrectomy that removes the posterior capsule may be needed". Isn't that nice, removing the major portion of a baby's eyeball (vitrectomy). Why don't you engineer all human babies to be born with plastic lenses in the first place? That would be quite profitable, don't you think?

I wonder what we'll see next on CureZone? Your post sets a worrying precedent. Perhaps we'll see oncologists advertising surgery and drug companies advertising chemotherapy on the Cancer Support Forum s.

The ophthalmology profession has almost doomed natural treatments of eye disease to oblivion. But don't crow too quickly. There are too many people, including many who frequent this website, who don't want your plastic lens. Go play your little game of surgical Russian Roulette with your own eyesight, not ours.
