I had cataract surgery 8 weeks ago. The day after surgery my eye was not clear, 20/40. Doctor said surgery went well and my vision will be getting better. One week after surgery my eye was 20/40 again. I tried to read one line lower but couldn't. My 6 week exam my eye was still 20/40. Thus needing glasses. I had a monofocal lens put in for distance. It was 21.0 D. I can see better close up (went from 250 to 225) but shopping and distance is blurry. Lights at stores also cause glare. My lens prescription before surgery was -.25 sph, +l.50 cyl and 17axis. My new prescription is -1.50sph, +1.00 cyl and 40axis. My sight is brighter and the starbursts around lights while driving are getting less but I definitely feel my vision in this eye is less than before. The doctor didn't tell me why I didn't get better vision. Should I see another doctor or should I wait and see it this resolves itself. I chose the surgery so I wouldn't have to wear glasses. My non -surgical eye has a small cataract and my vision in that is 0.00 sph, +0.50cyl and 170 axis. This was done by one of the best doctors in the city.
