Question: My inquiry is that since I had
cataract surgery and a lens implant I have what "appears" to be drops
of water, a shadow or something at the corner of my eye that is very
frustrating. Is this a common result of having cataract surgery?
Can anything be done to eliminate this condition?
Answer:
While it is impossible to tell exactly why you are experiencing this shadow or
sensation of seeing a drop of water in your vision, it is something that
patients report from time to time after cataract surgery and lens implants and
is thought to be related to adaptation to the lens implant or “seeing” the edge
of the lens implant. In any event it does seem to just fade away over
time-which varies from patient to patient.
