Can you do a video that dresses whether it's beneficial or not to get cataract surgery if you have dry macular degeneration and does cataract surgery contribute to wet Macular degeneration

Johnny T :

I had a light adjustable lenses implanted results were 2025 right eye and 2020 left eye. Several weeks later left eye goes to 2040 Doctor recommends capsulotomy and vision remains 2040 now suggesting PRK in left eye to correct that vision. Had Lasik 25 years ago so apparently lasik not an option. What is your advice?

Henry Travel Co. :

Are the prices for upgraded lenses pretty standard or can the same lens cost significantly more depending on the surgeon or practice you go to?
