Would the extra effort in removing, play a bigger factor in stressing the retina of an ARMD patient?

Seems that it would.

Some studies indicate that removing the cataract has no (or little) effect on the MD patient.
But I think they are talking about "typical" cataracts.

Comments please>
Thanks.

Only an eye MD ophthalmologist that examines your father can give you your options and help you deal with the removal.
