Can congenital cataracts become congested?

Patient's question:

Found that the child has no reaction to the bright-colored balls, and the pupils seem a bit gray. Taken to the town hospital for a check-up, they said it was cataracts and advised to go to a big hospital to see if surgery is needed. If surgery is performed, can it be cured, or can only some vision be restored?

Doctor's answer:

No bleeding occurred with cataracts. The bloodstains you described near the ball gradually disappeared. It should be subconjunctival hemorrhage. This will gradually absorb and there is no problem. You are using eye drops every day. You need to carefully check if it is purulent. You can gently squeeze along the direction of the lacrimal sac to see if pus can be expressed. The possibility of lacrimal sac inflammation is relatively high. It is recommended that you go to an ophthalmology examination. The current judgment is that cataracts are not very convincing.
