IOL implantation

[manjunath1847]

Hello Sir,

My mother has underdone a IOL implantation surgery. Operation was done 2.5 months before. Even after 2.5 months, she is still having irritation, pain and she says she cant see the things clearly. When we consult the doctor, he says eyes are perfectly fine and he says irritation may be there of 6 months. We also took a second opinion from another doctor and even he says eyes are fine. But my mother keep reporting irritation pain also she says she feels as if some fluid is filling the eye and causing difficult to see the things clearly.

Please help us and give us some suggestions. I am eagerly waiting for your reply.

Thanks in advance.

It is not normal for pain to last this long.  Exercise at this point is not contraindicated.
