They are monitored about every five minutes for their respiration rate, heart rate, muscle tone, mucous membrane color and capillary refill time and usually a pulse ox (oxygen saturation in the blood). and at the beginning of the surgery, in the middle, and at the end a blood pressure will be taken. Also fluids may be given and if so, the drip rate will be monitored and if the blood pressure decreases drastically, fluids can be given to increase it. other drugs can be given if other vital signs are either too low or too high.

Cataract removal is typically performed under local anesthesia to ensure patient comfort while allowing them to remain awake and alert during the procedure. Local anesthesia reduces pain and discomfort in the eye without the risks associated with general anesthesia, such as longer recovery times and potential complications.
