My recent cataract surgery

(Springfield, MA)

I had cataract surgery on January 9th. It is now January 29th and I still cannot see out of that eye. There is a kind of darkness in the middle and the vision is very blurry. Can't see distance nor close-up. Canceled my 2nd surgery and have an appointment on February 6th to have the eye checked again. Very disappointing.

I had the same problem after my first surgery. The cataract was large and and the procedure caused some cornea swelling. My vision in that eye was functionally useless for about 3 weeks. The doctor told me that the problem would resolve and it did. Now my vision in that eye is great. Had the second eye done and no problems with it. Having both eyes done was one of the best decisions of my life. I'm now seeing better than I could ever have imagined.
