Question
1 2 3 4 5 6 CASE STUDY ON CATARACT Mrs. Janet Donald is a 66-year-old woman who lives alone in her own home. Her son found her unconscious on the floor approximately four hours after sustaining a fall. She was admitted to the Mount Hope hospital for overnight observation. On admission, she had a small bump on her forehead but was awake, alert and oriented to time, place and person. When interviewed about the incident, she said that she has been experiencing blurring of her vision and complained of seeing glares and halos whenever she looks at bright lights even for a split second. However, she ignored these, attributing them to tiredness. She admits that her vision is very foggy and she is having problems seeing as clear as she use to in earlier years. She claims that she under estimated the placement of the mat and her foot got entangled in it while exiting the bath. Assessment shows that the lens in her eyes looked cloudy. Mrs. Donald was reviewed by the ophthalmologist on call and was diagnosed as having cataract in both eyes. She was scheduled for removal of cataract in the right eye the next day and the other eye in six months- time.
