I had Cataract surgery five weeks ago. I have had vision problems since. A short time after surgery my vision started to get foggy. Saw my Doctor the next day, the pressure in my eye was at 40. The doctor relieved the pressure with a needle to the eye. I came back a week later pressure was at 36 the doctor thought I was allergic to the Pred Forte eye drops. He took me off the Pred Forte and put me on an eye drop to lower the pressure. I went back two weeks later. My pressure was now down to 21. The doctor said that I had a Vitreous separation, He told me to come back in five weeks. The doctor thought that the following vision problems would get better in time. Two weeks later and I still have the same vision problems, no better no worse. These problems include. (1) Halo around light at night . (2) What I would call a partial double image, while looking at the moon or a car light. (3) I have also developed floaters in my eye that make it appear that I am looking through a thin layer of Vaseline. (4) When I first awake my vision is a little blurred, then gets better in about twenty minutes (my distance vision is pretty good)
I am very nearsighted, I have minor Astigmatism, a Toric lens was implanted, I am 61 years old.
I have a small Cataract in my other eye, but have almost 20/20 vision in that eye.
Do you think these problems will get better in time or should I be concerned.
Thank you.
