Cellulitis

I am being treated for cellulitis and will continue penicillin for three  weeks.  The condition appears to be improving.  However I am scheduled to have cataract operations  beginning in four weeks.  Is there any danger involve? in the cellulitis infecting my eye?  Should I defer these operations.

Dear kevin123652,

I would recommend that you be completely clear before you undergo any cataract operation.  Speak with your eyeMD and inform him/her of your situation.
