I underwent the same surgery on both eyes along with vitrectomy, laser and cryo.. The pupils are both still dilated! I researched the net to only find that it was a common complication of these forgoing procedures. A doctor said online that if it was still there after 4-6 months then it would be permanent!
In my experience, the vision shouldn't be affected that much by the dilatation of the pupil. I need to squint to be able to read a newspaper or PC. The loss of the focus might be related to the lens or the retina itself I assume. It has been almost 3 months since my left eye surgery and I have been trying to adjust to the dilatation in my pupil.
Good luck, Hadidi
