Cataract Surgery: What to expect after surgery

I think people are not told the downsides to cataract surgery. I had been told it would be a breeze. Now, after 7 weeks, I have double vision in the eye that had the surgery and have had 4 diagnostic appointments to find out the problem with no clear answers or game plan on a fix as yet. People should be aware, cataract surgery is not as easy as it's made out to be. I have cancelled the surgery for my other eye...I'll wait for near blindness before ever having that one done!

I just had to chime in on this post. In January 2019 I had cataract surgery on my right eye as it was the worst. All my friends that had the procedure done also had glowing results. This is December 2020 and i still wrestle with issues from the procedure. Somehow after the surgery an infection occurred in my cornea, prednisone didn't clear it up. So my last option was a shot in my eye. The doctor was so non chalant about it I walked out of the room and replied not today. As my eye only got worse I prayed and consulted friends, and reading post from this site I decided to go back to the doctor and have them to explain to me what other options were available and what were the consequences if I didn’t take the shot. The prognosis wasn’t good. I took the shot The issue got better however I still experience discomfort in that eye. They want me to do the left eye. My response was this I haven’t healed yet from the one you did.why would i give you the other one, Through this site i’ve learned about Perser Vision vitamin. and the Bruder eye mask which are a tremendous help. To be forewarned is to be fore armed. not all results are glowing
