How can two doctors advise differ u procedures for the same condition?

It is absolutely possible!

Neither is wrong.

The procedure is a means to an end
You will achieve the end along different paths

The path advised will be based on the
- doctor’s experience
- doctor’s expertise
- doctor’s preference

I would suggest do your research, choose a specialised doctor in that field who gains your trust, answers your queries, and decide to go with his recommendation!

Monofocal IOL- if you are okay using reading glasses. Fully covered in health insurance policy.

Trifocal IOL- if you would like complete spectacle independence and can tolerate haloes at night initially

Extended depth of focus IOL- if you would not like haloes at night but are willing for a small power for reading fine print

Toric IOL- if you have astigmatism > 1 diopter

Everything you choose comes with an upside and downside!

Can weight loss drugs like mounjaro and ozempic affect the eyes?

Yes!

With sudden drop in blood sugar levels, they can cause temporary blurring of vision

They can worsen diabetic retinopathy in diabetics

And rare cases have been reported of Anterior Ischemic Optic Neuropathy- a kind of stroke of the optic nerve which causes loss of 50% of the field of vision which is irreversible

These side effects do not happen in all

But a baseline eye exam is recommended

And awareness of the side effects is key to being safe and vigilant
