Hi! I’m an assistant to the Ask Ayurveda doctors. I’ve carefully reviewed your question.

I will explain your symptoms through the Ayurvedic perspective so you understand what is happening in your body as a whole.

Cataract surgery involves a significant intervention in the eye, and post-surgery, the body is in a state of healing. In Ayurveda, the eyes are governed by the Pitta dosha, which is responsible for vision and transformation. After surgery, there can be an imbalance in the Pitta, leading to inflammation or irritation, which is why medications like prednisolone and moxifloxacin are prescribed to reduce inflammation and prevent infection.

Itone eye drops are often used for their cooling and soothing properties, which can help balance Pitta and provide relief. However, it is crucial to ensure that introducing any new substance to the eye post-surgery does not interfere with the healing process or prescribed medications.

To give doctors a precise and effective treatment plan, your answers to the questions below are essential. Without this information, the recommendations will be more general and less accurate.

Please answer each question as clearly as possible.

1. How long after your cataract surgery did you start using the current eye drops? (Options: Immediately after surgery, Within a week, More than a week, I haven’t started using them yet) 2. Have you experienced any side effects from the current eye drops? (Options: No side effects, Mild irritation, Increased redness, Discomfort or pain) 3. How would you describe your current vision? (Options: Clear and stable, Slightly blurred, Significantly impaired, Fluctuating) 4. Are you following any specific post-operative care instructions from your doctor? (Options: Yes, strictly following, Somewhat following, Not really following, I haven’t received any instructions) 5. Have you had any follow-up appointments since the surgery? (Options: Yes, multiple follow-ups, One follow-up, No follow-ups yet, I have an appointment scheduled) 6. How is your overall eye comfort since the surgery? (Options: Very comfortable, Some discomfort, Frequent discomfort, Painful) 7. Do you have any other eye conditions or history of eye surgeries? (Options: No other conditions, Previous eye surgery, Chronic eye condition, Other issues)

Please provide your responses so we can assist you further.

Namaste, Cataract surgery ke baad jo aap currently eye drops use kar rahe hain (prednisolone aur moxifloxacin), woh bahut important hote hain healing, infection control aur inflammation kam karne ke liye. Is stage par aankh bahut sensitive hoti hai. Itone eye drops generally netra poshan aur mild conditions ke liye use kiye jaate hain, lekin surgery ke turant baad bina doctor ki permission ke use karna advisable nahi hai. Kyunki kisi bhi additional drop se irritation ya interference ho sakta hai ongoing treatment mein. Aapki vision clear hai aur aap doctor ke instructions follow kar rahe hain, yeh bahut achhi baat hai — isi ko continue rakhein. Abhi ke liye: Itone drops start na karein jab tak aapke eye surgeon specifically allow na karein. Usually 3–4 weeks baad, jab healing stable ho jati hai, tab hi koi additional drop consider kiya jata hai, wo bhi doctor ki guidance se. Aankhon ke liye kuch simple care: Dhool, dhoop aur screen exposure se bachav rakhein Aankhon ko rub na karein Proper sleep lein, kyunki healing mein help milti hai Agar halka discomfort hai, woh normal ho sakta hai initial weeks mein, lekin agar redness, pain ya watering badhta hai toh turant doctor ko batayein. Aapka current treatment sahi direction mein hai, isliye bina consult kiye kuch add karne ki zaroorat nahi hai.

अभी Prednisolone (steroid) और Moxifloxacin (antibiotic) drops चल रहे हैं = ये surgery के बाद inflammation और infection रोकने के लिए जरूरी हैं। Itone एक Ayurvedic polyherbal eye drop है (Neem, Bhringraj, Triphala, Rose water आदि से बना)। यह soothing, anti-inflammatory और mild healing effect देता है। कुछ surgeons इसे dryness या irritation के लिए allow करते हैं। सुरक्षित तरीका: अभी न शुरू करें - कम से कम 4–6 हफ्ते तक steroid और antibiotic drops पूरा होने दें Itone को steroid/antibiotic drops बाद में इस्तेमाल कर सकते हैं (दिन में 2–4 बार)। Regards Dr Gursimran Jeet Singh MD Panchakarma

No u should not use the eye drop. You should go with your opthalmologist opinion for 1 month post surgery to avoid any post surgical complications. Keep your moxiflox and prednisolone eye drops going on and stay in touch with your opthalmic surgeon.

You should not start using Itone eye drops on your own after cataract surgery. Continue only the prescribed drops (prednisolone and moxifloxacin) unless your ophthalmologist specifically advises otherwise. Itone is an Ayurvedic/herbal formulation and is not part of standard post‑operative care. Current Standard Post‑Operative Eye Drops— - Antibiotic drops (like moxifloxacin) → prevent infection inside the eye. - Steroid drops (like prednisolone) → reduce inflammation and swelling. - These are usually continued for several weeks after surgery under strict medical supervision.
