Question

A nurse is evaluating the client's understanding of post cataract surgery instructions. the client needs further education when they state."i will report any yellow drainage to my provider"."i can return to my normal activities like cleaning my house and vacuuming.""i will report any nausea or vomiting"."my vision will improve over the next 4 to 6 weeks".

Answer 1

The answer to this question should be: "i can return to my normal activities like cleaning my house and vacuuming"

A post cataract surgery patient will be prone to an airborne allergen such as dust so it is not recommended to do any cleaning or be in a place with much dust. Vacuuming will increase the amount of the dust in the room and this might cause damage to the patient eye.

Answer 2

A nurse is evaluating the client's understanding of post cataract surgery instructions. The client needs further education when they state: I can return to my normal activities like cleaning my house and vacuuming.

Further Explanation:

The lens is that part of the eye which allows it to focus light or an image on the retina which is present at the back of the eye and is involved in converting light signal into nerve signal. Lens mainly consist of water and protein.

The cataract is the condition when there occurs clouding of the lens in the eyes which eventually affects the vision. This can affect either or both the eyes but cannot build out from one eye to another.

In normal vision, the proteins in the lens are present in a precise way which maintains the lens clear and allows the passage of light but with ageing, the protein may assemble together and start gathering to a small part of the lens which results in cataract.

Cataract surgery may increase the risk of retinal detachment.

There can be post-surgery effect of cataract treatment which may include itching, some fluid discharge, infection and mild discomfort.

Doctors may suggest the patients undergone cataract surgery to use some eye drops, wear an eye shield or eyeglasses and avoid bending from the waist and do the heavy household chores
