poor vision

Good evening to all, I am having some vision problems issues and cannot get the proper correction from my glasses. My right eye is around 20/40 corrected with some distortion from a detached retina in 4/10; cataract removed and replaced with a Toric lens and a macular membrane peel in 12/10.    My left eye is about 20/25 corrected with three retinal tears fixed with the laser and a small cataract. Each eye tested independently is really not that bad, but getting both eyes to work together seems to be the big problem. I am experiencing a lot of cloudiness and blurred vision particularly during the day and at distances. My reading vision is not as bad. I am being followed by an outstanding Retinal surgeon and was told at my last visit two weeks everything looked fine with my retinas. I have had three different eyeglass prescriptions since June of this year. Is there anything else that might be tried to improve my overall vision? I was considering a neuro- ophthalmologist. Thank you for all of your help.

1. Read the postings today just below this from rag8347. Many of them apply to you. Since your problems seem to be binocular use of the eyes either a strabismus (pediatric) ophthalmologist or neuro-ophthalmologist would be the next step. I think the former a better choice than the latter.

Thank you very much for your response. Actually it was cloudy and raining here today and my vision was somewhat better. Is there such a thing as clear floaters affecting my vision on sunny days? Have a great evening

Floaters are often more visible or prominent with certain types of backgrounds. For instance looking into a very blue sky and moving the eyes will usually make most floaters visible.
