flomax or finesteride

I have been using finesteride instead of flomax for the last 4 month.  Is that a better alternative for cataract surgery
thanks

Thank you for your quick response.
Will the surgeon be able to compensate for the flomax damage already done. Will it be a better alternative not to have the cataracts done to prevent complications. However I do need the surgery, but I am weighing one thing against the other before I decide.

Yes.  However, the damage to the eye has already been done it you had taken flomax.
