Positive Dysphotopsia after Cataract Surgery

Hi, yes that fibrosis is the lens scarring into place in the capsular bag. The flickering that most experience in the few weeks post-op is normal and it is actual movement of the lens till it scars in place. But unfortunately my flickering is persistent 5 months later. In the videos I did it looks like my lens is moving but I think its catching light on the edge and rings of the square edge lens and makes it look like its moving. My surgeon has referred me to a specialist that I meet tomorrow to talk more about this. My surgeon says it could be loose zonules but it would not cause the pulsating vision so it is a separate issue from the PD.

I can't agree with you more about the industry shift to a material and design that was suppose to prevent PCO but created a worse problem. I to had PCO immediately. At least that can be addressed with a clinical YAG procedure vs possible surgery.

Will update if I learn more tomorrow.

Hello. I am having the same issues, and I was curious how you are doing now?
