    This document outlines the cataract day surgery pathway for low volume and complex cases at a hospital. It details the referral, assessment, admission, surgery, post-operative, and discharge process. Key steps include a one-stop pre-op clinic, booking 4-5 cases per session, admitting patients the day of surgery, conducting the surgery, providing post-op care and guidance, and discharging patients after follow up criteria are met. The goal is to efficiently manage cataract patients from referral to discharge and follow up.
