Some mornings I awake to very blurry vision that takes hours to rectify if I sleep with something pressed against my eye.The other issue is that when I go into the bright sun (or any other bright light) , it can take up to 7 minutes until I can see clearly again. Does anyone have the same issues, and why is this happening?
Do you have IOL's in both eyes? Have you consulted an ophthamologist about this matter?
No, I haven't. I had lots of problems with the initial operation and saw many specialists at that time. The wrong lens was implanted in 1st operation and I have lousy vision, but no one can resolve it, including Bascom Palmer Eye Institute. They say the implant is seated properly. I do have them in both eyes. done a year apart by different doctors. Both do the same tho.
1st Operation: Wrong lens? Was the doctor inexperienced? He didn't go back and put in the correct IOL? Then each eye was operated on by different doctors? You were disappointed in the 1st doctor who messed up. Why didn't you sue him? The second operation doctor is now your ophthamologist?
No, the lens could not be replaced. I had worn contacts for 40 years. I had'have severe astigmatism. The doc made me go without contacts for 6 months so the cornea could flatten some. After doing many topographies, he deemed it was time. He inserted a multifocal lens. I can see clearly at around 7 feet. Wear glasses for the other distances. I went to an attorney. The attorney, who used to be an opth. said you cannot sue if the operation was done correctly, which it was. Yes, the second surgeon is my go to doc.
If your sight continues to be blurry and takes hours before it clears and it takes up to 7 minutes for your eyes to adjust to bright light, then you should consult with your ophthamologist.
I have only had my IOL 5 weeks in the left eye and yes, upon waking if my eye has teared during the night, it does take several minutes for the eye to focus. Bright lights refocus? No such problem. If your issues continne, seek out your ophthamologist.
