Thank you for caring. Was told I had a cataract in my only good eye which is my left eye. (My right eye I have amblyopia and noncorectional vision of 20-300 or 20-200 depending on which doctor says so,) I had no symptoms of any sight impairment but did what the doctor said to do and I had cataract surgery. After the cataract surgery was done and the bandage came off I immediately had great pain, blurriness, clouds and lower eye sight which has becoming worse as time goes bye. Even the colors are dimmer and am becoming color blind with the charts. But the bluriness is becoming worse as time goes bye. Help me please. I want to make an appointment but need to figure out transportation. I live alone. No family. This is quite frightening. Ohhh! The doctor gave me a card after the operation which says "interocular lens identification card. In case of emergency contact my physician. And there are many "precision series numbers following. numbers. Oh well, just another human being needing help who will appreciate all. Thank you. Peach

I forgot. I live about 200 miles away in Ocala, Florida. Peach, over and out.

Hi @peach414144, my mom just had cataract surgery. Like you, she was told to call if she had any concerns. Your worsening symptoms are definitely worth calling your surgeon about, right away. There may be a simple reason or perhaps there is an underlying eye issue causing problems. You should find out. Please call your doctor and let us know what you find out.

Dear Colleen thank you and yes I did ask my doctor about this. The doctor (opthamalagist) would not address the issue. To just go along with his diagnosis. (The same goes for the second opthamalogist.) I am so sorry to say that here in Ocala, Florida it is very questionable. Called Mayo here in Jacksonville asked for an appointment and was told I should be diagnosed with an operable diagnosis first and then they can set up an opthamalogist surgeon. But I need to be properlyy diagnosed first, The stress continues to build up. Where can i go next?

I can understand your frustration at trying to get help. What did the ophthalmologist mean by "go along with the diagnosis"? What is the diagnosis?

Dear Ladies: Peach here. Here we go again::: I have just came back fro another opthamalogist One I had seen six months ago. He says that I have BOTH; macular degeneration and gloucoma along with extreme dry eyes. Well here we go again. One doctor states I only have gloucoma, the other doctor says I have both gloucoma and macular degeneration. I am shown pictures taken of my eyes to prove this. It would be nice to only have the one but to be correct I must address both diagnosis. The most recent doctor who is quite aged (hopefully has much experience) recommends I take omega 3, krill oil or flax seed vitamin D and an ocular formula such as Areds which I will do. Thank you dear Lord for the physicians. Any input to this is appreciated.
