Hi @metermaidman, I would like to add my welcome to Connect along with @amandaburnett and others. I had cataract surgery in both of my eyes last year but didn't have any issues with blurry vision. If I remember correctly, my surgeon told me it was normal for the vision to be a little blurry for a few days after the surgery while the eye is healing. Since your surgery was on July 29th, I'm wondering if your eyes may have some inflammation from the surgery. I think I had to take multiple medication eye drops 3 to 4 times a day for a month. Are you still using the eye drops given as a follow up to your cataract surgery?

The first week I was taking 2 different eyedrops 4 times a day and another eyedrop twice a day. now I`m supposed to take only one eyedrop twice a day until it`s gone. I went to another eye Dr. and he gave me an eye ointment(3 times daily) to take. He said this would cause me some eye pain for 15-20 minutes when I put it in my eye. But the first time I put it in I felt nothing and thought he had pulling my leg to make me feel better. Later when I told him that he was surprised because he said that is not normal ...not to feel the pain....so am I different or does that mean something about my eye?
