After cataract surgery

Cataract surgery in right eye three months ago, when bandage came off had 20/20 vision, now down to 20/50 and eye very blurry.  Just had the same surgery on left eye 3 weeks ago and it is terribly blurry.  Will this change in time?

You may disfunctional tear syndome (dry eyes).  You need to follow up with your surgeon.

Most of the time, the left eye won't focus, especially when I get up in the mornings.  I have to open and close it several times and really try to focus on something.  Sometimes, it is like double vision.  With the blurryness, it seems like there are things running around in the eye.

Hard to tell from the info.  Regarding the right eye, you may have a capsular opacity which can be treated with a yag laser and restore vision.  What is terrible vision in the left eye?
