The client is scheduled for right-eye cataract removal surgery in five (5) days. Which preoperative instruction should be discussed with the client?
Correct answer
D

Avoiding bleeding-risk medications like aspirin prevents intraoperative hemorrhage. Dilating drops are not used for 72 hours, lifting restrictions are postoperative, and cataract surgery is typically outpatient.
