Thanks for your kind thoughts poc1115. They HAVE NOT diagnosed the pigment dispersion syndrome in eye #1, so maybe the PD is caused by the reflections off the square edges of the SN60. So, even with them honoring my request to use the B & L round edge silicone on eye #2, I’m left with PD on it too…. Maybe it’s the pigment dispersion problem or the blue eyes. They shrug there shoulders.

I appreciate your specific description of your positive dysphotopsia and how those situations mirror mine. Yes, it was interesting how the optometrist mentioned how ONLY his blue-eyed patients seem to struggle with PD. Anyhow, no answers for my problems but, I too, hope the symptoms settle down (or, tolerance increases) over time. Sure hope you find improvement too. Thanks so much!

I also cannot look directly into the sun, up lights, Down lights, i cover my eyes, make my surrounding dark and then I use a small flashlight to guide myself at night…empathetically, Marianne
