Dear jasmin20,
I would recommend seeking the care of an eyeMD specializing in glaucoma and/or cataracts to determine whether removal of the cataract might help in improving your mom’s vision. Depending on the extent and type of glaucomatous damage, it might not be beneficial so it is best to seek the care from specialists.
