Today, i went to an optometrist to explore my options (contacts and glasses) after my vitrectomy more than 2 weeks ago. My right eye also had the cataract removed during the surgery and fitted with a monofocal lens that correct my myopia to -2.5. Right now, my right eye can see the big picture generally but pthere are distortions and some parts missing in my vision. I cannot read with it. Leaving my right eye as is, whether using contact or glass over my left eye, i am generally ok especially looking far but a little discomfort when looking on the ground but i walk fine. Reading, there is some disurbance from my right eye. My optometrist says my brain automatically shuts out the poor vision from my right and i am essentially using my left eye far or near. However, when he tried to improve my right vision by putting on a stronger glass, i begin to see vertcal double vision which he calls tropia. He thinks the vitrectomy has caused this. He cannot find a solution at his end but thinks surgery might be a solution. I am quite lost.
