Hello mauigirl17,
As to me, my right eye remains free of dysphotopia.
As I said, I INITIALLY thought that all my efforts to get the round edge IOL were a waste. BUT, at 4 months post surgery, the streaks, arcs, lights went away! I don’t know if it was due to healing, neuroadaptation, the IOL or a combination. Other Note: I did see a doctor’s testimonial on that specific B & L lens I got in the right eye as the only one he uses (to avoid dysphotopsias).
I don’t know the extent of your symptoms, but, it being “only” 5 weeks, I’d wait and hope healing and neuroadaptation would ease the problem. I FULLY agree with avoiding lens exchange if possible.
Quick story: I had a different “minor” procedure for a different “annoyance” done on my left eye in late 2023. Catastrophic.
Good luck!
