Hello Comrades,

I experience cataracts plus several other eye conditions. I do wear corrective lenses, and all day today, I experience eye burning and watering. I'm wondering if anyone else has experienced these symptoms with cataracts alone and if so, what remedies were effective for you? I can't recall other conditions since my family member took it upon themselves to take my diagnostic write up for safe-keeping, so I will have to wait until they find it and have time to let me know.

Thanks for any cost-efficient relief you can offer.

can't you get surgery to fix cataracts?

Ah, well, surgery might correct more than cataracts, and then I experience budgetary constraints, no insurance. Last I was quoted for cataracts alone was anywhere from $7k-10k. Eta: per eye
