I’m 69 and I had both eyes done with Alcon lens, am post surgery 7 months left eye snd 11 months right eye. My positive dysphotopsia causes the same light streaks with any lighting. ( even the moon at night has light streaks ) Thank you for bringing pigment disbursement to my attention,
I have green eyes and wasn’t aware of this.
I would never attempt a lens replacement- too risky on many levels. I’ve resigned myself to living with this but it’s very frustrating.

The pigment dispersion syndrome of my right was first noticed and diagnosed in recent months (late 2022). It appears that it can be a contributor to getting glaucoma, but I don’t have symptoms of that yet. It can be a cause/contributor to dysphotopic symptoms. I don’t know much about (haven’t found much material). As said, I just heard this thing about “light eyes” susceptibility to PD a week ago! Take care
