Hi CiaLin:
Did you ever get an answer to this? I have the exact same problem.
I had surgery ninety days ago and see hundreds of black spots in left eye, My right eye is scheduled for cataract surgery in 5 days. This is scary to me, My sight is better in my left eye, except for the black dots. Could this be.a sign that my eye is rejecting the lens from the cataract surgery? Help please!
There are a number of causes of black spots. The two most common 1. vitreous floaters, black spots that move when the eye moves and are present most of the time 2. negative dysphotopsia that are due to the IOL, especially multifocal IOLs. Use the archives and search feature to read more about both.
There are other causes. If they are getting worse ask for a second opinion
