My grandma is 87 years old and she is using a eye drops named 'gocat' which contain: - "potassium iodide -3.3% calcium chloride-1% sodium chloride-0.83% methyl paraben-0.023% propyl paraben-0.011%" this was the eye drops that was suggested by her doctor few years ago. I have heard that this solution can't reverse cataract and it only can delay the intensity of cataract. Recently I have heard that currently there exist solutions which can reverse the effect of cataract and I would like to know whether I should stick on to 'gocat' eye drops or is there any other eye drops which can heal or reverse the effect of cataract?
