Hi 68wolf, Sorry to hear about the disappointing yag. Although I have mild PCO, I haven't had a yag as yet because I've been told the yag can make positive dysphotopsias worse. I have the Maddox rod effect which may be improved by a yag but starbursts may become more problematic... At any rate, I'd suggest another opinion or more until you feel more confident that another yag is worth the risk.

What lens do you have? I have the Clareon monofocal for -2.25D and I have a shadow in my peripheral temporal vision (like wearing a horse blinder) as well as glare & flickering light. At night I have a streak/ray of light both vertical & horizontal. I chose a conservative option and do not know what to do.

I doubt that another YAG would be recommended. I thin that I’ll just need to accept the glare and wear glare reducing glasses. I regret having the second YAG. The Dr said there was no downside, but she was wrong. She didn’t tell me that it could enhance the glare. Thanks
