Blurry Vision & Light Problems after Cataract Surgery

Question: I had cataract surgery on both eyes in February and have very blurry vision and bad light problems so I have to wear sunglasses all the time and I only do what I have to do. I sit most of the time in the house with my eyes closed and when they are open they burn and hurt so bad I can’t stand it. What should I do? 

Answer: What you are experiencing is not expected or normal after Cataract Surgery. Your situation requires a thorough evaluation by your Cataract Surgeon as soon as possible. If you are unhappy with the Cataract Surgeon who performed your Cataract operation then you should find a Cataract Surgeon in your area and schedule an appointment for an examination and second opinion in order to determine the cause of your symptoms which are not at all acceptable.
