Post cataract surgery

Post cataract surgery

I had cataract surgery and the lens pocket did not heal smoothly over the IOL (intra ocular lens).
I see a  line on the left side of my eye which obstructs my side vision. The line goes away when I wear my glasses or sunglasses, it's as if light enhances this line. My retina is healthy, but my eye tears a lot and it feels as though my eye ball is swollen.
My doctor thinks that a laser treatment will shrink the pocket making it smoother and tighter. He did not offer a guarantee. I was wondering if anyone else had this problem, and if it was indeed corrected with the laser treatment.
Thank you for your advice.

Your description of the problem is not sufficiently conscise that I can visualize what is going on and answer your question. Sorry
