Positive Photopsia after YAG Capsulotomy

Had a lens implant and had a posterior capsule wrinkle for which I had YAG PCO. I immediately had night time starbursts. Support staff talked to me and examined me and said everything looked good. Finally my doc did a non dilated light exam which revealed my pupil was dilating larger than the PCO hole. Small touch up of the peripheral PCO cured my starbursts.

Hi Fathead,
Your post is EXACTLY what happened to me, down to the staff and doctor saying everything looks great!
This is something I can take to the doctor and see if they know what to do or give me the “deer in the headlight stare”.
Could you let me know your doctor?
