I have a very thick cataract on my right eye that developed after an infection when an Eylia shot for wet macular degeneration was done in early March. I had decent peripheral vision in that eye up until the infection and subsequent cataract which had helped with driving. The cataract is so dense that my retina specialist cannot do a scan to check the retina for changes and is urging me to get cataract surgery. The first cataract surgeon refused to do it. I see a second one later this month. This can’t be regarded as routine, so I’m worried that I may be at risk for even worse problems if I have cataract surgery done on my already damaged eye. Has anyone had cataract surgery done on a wet macular degeneration eye? On a cataract that developed because of an eyeball infection?
