Objects viewed with one eye appear larger than the other
noneother
Hi, I had a buckle operation to fix a detached retina in my left eye. The objects when viewed with my left eye (non-corrected) appear slightly larger than the objects in my right eye (non-corrected).
Why is this?

It can be due to the refractive change caused by the buckle and some increase in macular thickness.
