Spot on @lacy2 I wish I had been made aware by my Dr. that secondary cataracts were possible, after having cataract surgeries. I was left fending for myself with kooky double vision and discomfort for months, after one specialist missed it. I eventually found out I had secondary cataracts because I had a stitch lose from my previous cornea surgery that sent me to the ER while on vacation. The young opthamologist who went to snag my stitch, noticed immediately the secondary cataract.

This is a good reason to be here on Connect. To offer experience to others so they can advocate for themselves. Knowledge is power. And I will say, not all doctors overlook details we should be made aware of. There are some real good docs out there.
