My Oculentis Mplus IOLs implanted in 2012 are becoming cloudy, what can I do?

[Brinuk]

In 2012 I had Oculentis Mplus IOLs implanted in both eyes because of cataracts. I noticed some cloudiness in my left eye in 2016 and it was assumed that this was caused by Posterior Capsule Opacification and I had YAG laser treatment. This made little difference and I returned to my surgeon who, after tests, said it was the Mplus lenses of both eyes that were exhibiting opacification. I wrote to Oculentis in Germany who replied asking for the lens serial numbers, which I supplied. I have heard nothing more from Oculentis in spite of writing to them a further three times.
I understand that the YAG laser treatment now makes the explanting of the Mplus lens very difficult. The cloudiness in my left eye is now very bad. WEhat can I do?

You need to know why your vision is blurry. It might not be IOL.  All other parts of the eye need checked out plus your need for glasses.  Need macular OCT    It is not common for modern IOLs to turn cloudy. Sometimes people need a second Yag.  Get a second opinion.

I have had two opinions already, one from the eye hospital that undertook the YAG and a second from the surgeon that implanted the IOLs. Both agree the Oculentis Mplus IOLs are becoming cloudy. I read on the internet that these IOLs have a history of becoming cloudy and have been the subject of compensation claims in the UK.
