Conjuctivitis with 'cataract lenses'

Dear Ask The Doctor: I'm 84 with a heart condition. I have cataract lenses and I have conjunctivitis. I have eyedrops with an antibiotic in it (Tobarex). Can I put this in my eye with the cataract lenses in place?

Dear Nada: Yes. You may administer the Tobarex® eyedrops with the 'cataract lenses" in place. There will be no harmful side effects.
