Excelent explanation, for after cataract surgery syntoms. Dear Dr. , 6 montes have passed since I had my two eyes cataract surgery. I am seeing some flickers in the periphery ,especially at night, my question Is how much time will these flickers continúe to appear?

Thank you for being truthful, and thank you for sharing

Very informative video!! Had one eye done on 6/12/2024 and the other 6/18/2024 My right eye had really no issues except for the flickering and the stretch of the lights as beams. The beam issue went away but the shimmering is minimal. As for the left eye… the cataract was just forming. I have scratching and it hurts where the incision was placed. I still have the light beam but not as bad but the shimmering is annoying. I also had a scratch and corneal edema. I am taking drops and Refresh eye drops to help with the healing. My incision on the right eye was healed the next day. I didn’t realize how bad my eyesight was UNTIL I had this done. I CAN SEE!! I wake up with clear vision, can drive and read. Now for the small print, I will need to use some type of reading glass which I’m ok with. I’ve been with glasses since I was about 10/11 and this is freaking amazing how bright everything is! My house is clean or so I thought. Can see every speck of dirt 😂. I would do this again even if I continue to have the shimmering! I do have the monofocal lens and I know I would t be able to deal with the halos all the time. Good luck everyone!

We no longer offer Saturday appts. This started during Covid

Tomorrow will be 1 week of my eye surgery..it feels like something in my eye.left side of eye feels wiggly..vision not clear. Blurry. Like it has foggyness in it.what is the answer? What happened?

I HAD FLOATERS THAT BOTHERED ME BEFORE CATARACT SURGERY, AFTER CATARACT SURGERY, ALL THE FLOATERS WENT AWAY, VERY SATISFIED.

Thank you thank you thank you thank you 💖💖💖💖💖

Crystal clear first 12hours from cataract surgery then after a overnight sleep suddenly eye was cloudy waking up. What happem, is this normal during healing time? Advice please doctor. Thank you

Great video thank you

I my age 64, had already gone through cataract surgery right eye and planted alcon monofocal lens in Mar 24,and results were fantastic, now since I had cataract in left eye also been done in May 24,with same alcon monofocal but experienced that when went on road in car at night, was very disappointed that streaks of light of other car even streaks of lights of road side poles lights were also making streaks, I have visited the Dr, and reported all experience of streaks, kindly is it temporary, as my doctor checked on his machine that the surgery went successfully use the medication prescribed it will be eliminated within few days, kindly comment of your experts opinion, thanks.

I did both my eyes and so very excited about how good my vision is now. It's amazing. I just can't believe it. I feel like I have brand new eyes. 🤗

In my case Ican't see anything It looks like I,m in a steam room

How do you determine if someone has cataracts or trigeum?

EXCELLENT VIDEO N MOST INFORMATIVE ... THANK YOU!

I had a catarct surgery of 1 eye but my other eye had spectacle for power _5D now i am getting double vision when ever i use my specus

After surgery, I now see things in HD. Downside is, now I see the bills to pay!😂

Thanks for this great explanation

Thank you so much

What about blurred vision

My new lens is cloudy and milky white. Doctor said water wicked through the incision and covered my cornea so I am looking through a fish bowl. I am on salt drops to pull the water out. Interesting.

My Doctor said the shadow was caused by seeing the edge of the new implant! Right or wrong?

disappointed.....clicked on this , as I am going for a cataract op. soon .....wanted to know what happens immediately after the operation is completed ...eg....will they have to drag me of the operating table , screaming and shouting.......will I be slipping and sliding in a pool of my own blood....will they have to tie me to a chair for 3 hours , till I quieten down......changed my mind. , where's my white stick !

Doesn’t the shadow or flicker of light mean a retina tear?

Thank you for your video, I don't think I got enough time before surgery to be informed about the choices or the consequences of the surgery, this sure helped to explain things. Things aren't as easy as they pretend they are

Toric IOLs come in a variety of models, but a Toric is exclusively intended to correct astigmatism.

Thank you for such a clear explanation of post op symptoms of cataract surgery. I find with one eye 20/20 and the other one still needing a RX is very disorienting. Is this normal? My surgery was 3/7 and it's 3/11 I am scheduled for other eye on 3/21.

For me, there was no recovery time. Done and done.

would y expect astigmatism to be worse after cataract surgery

I requested general anesthesia.I want to be out cold.

I just had my left eye done 2 weeks ago and my right eye done 5 days ago and have Clareon Vivity+Toric lens (because of my astigmatism and previous lasik surgery). After 2 weeks my left eye is 20/25 for distance and 20/20 for intermediate & near (be able to read without glasses except very tiny fonts). Only 5 days my right eye starts to see everything so clear. I see everything so crystal clear that I thought I just bought a new HD TV and laptop though they are 10 years old already. Everything is so clear and beautiful that I miss seeing for a long time. Can't wait to go back to biking in the trails and swimming... Glad I found a good cataract surgeon near where I live.

My surgery was on Monday. Today is Friday. I am feeling exactly same. You only described many things which many other doctors didn't mention. Thanks Dear Doctor.

Excellent description. Doctor you are great. Stay Blessed. Ameen

I am scheduled for the operation. But I would prefer both eyes at once. Is this a good idea. They have me scheduled in 3 weeks for the next one. I know 2 people who have both eyes at once,they were very happy.

I had surgery Monday 1 p.m it in now Wednesday. I can see great when out side in bright light, but when I'm inside it's like a dark fog. I noticed that my pupil in that eye is very small and fixed. It doesn't react to light and dark when I turn off the light. Trying to get to dr. But they keep telling me to give it another day.

This is such a great video. I just did my cataract removal surgery yesterday and felt a bit anxious on the recovery. This video is very informative and well explained. Thank you, Dr Ficco, for sharing. God bless you!

Thank you for your information very useful 👍🌹

Very good video.

had surgery done 10 days ago am experiencing night blindness what should i do am worried

What about cloudy eye?

I was supposed to have my eyes done February 5 and February 12 .but I chicken out and just got more glasses instead.i don't know if I trust someone with a Lazer in my eyes

I'm 3 days post-op & day 1 & 2 I had significant pain on the operative side. It's abating now, but was horrible that first few days. The office I went to is staffed with medical assistants who just blew me off.

I had cataract surgery both eyes i have worse vision now than before. It great for about two years hd vision. Now it cloudy.

Great,informative video. I’m 4 days post second eye with multi focal lenses. My distance vision cleared nicely at day 5,.Two weeks later up close not great.( hopefully just the brain adjustment thing), 4 days post op second eye now, very different, Still very sore and red, vision is blurry, but not as grainy as day 1 and 2. I think my eye was injured with the speculum and hopefully just needs more time to heal. Great idea- before surgery, print out some eye drop charts so you can check off each time. It gets a bit confusing in the period of time where you will be doing both eyes.

It’s great that you explain the significance of new flashes or floaters as possible retinal related complications. As one who had retina detachment after a cataract surgery, I reached out to my doctor and was “assured” that it was probably some “vitreous detachment”. Not untill I told him that I see a black curtain covering my lower field of vision, did he see me. It required a Vitrectomy, a gas and a buckle to save my vision…

Very good commentary, Thanks !

I had my right eye done this past Monday...today is Wednesday. I'm amazed at how different everything looks! The procedure was painless and quick and my vision in my "new eye" is brighter and sharper. The only way I can explain it is the difference between the headlight cover (yellowed) on an older car and the headlight cover (clear) on a newer car. I haven't had any pain or other issues. I'm thinking about getting my left eye done...not for a cataract, but for an astigmatism....same procedure. My only problem is that now I can see the dust on my furniture more easily! 🥴
