Post Op Pain
I had a cataract removed 2 days ago. My post op appointment went very well. This morning I woke up with discomfort. The pain increases when I look up. I still see the black line to the lateral side of my eye. I also had the torque lens implanted, if that makes any difference. Should I be concerned?

Thank you for your guidance. I followed your advise and had no problem getting in this morning. The covering that is over the site of the incision did not close completely, so I had pain of the abrased area with looking up. They helped by applying a "bandaid" over the area to stay until Monday. Again, thank you.
