The music is there to make it feel not so scary. Surgery can be scary for many people, they're trying to put it into a light-hearted and informational format.

I had the surgery yesterday and I had no problem whatsoever. I didn’t have to use eye drops or anything afterwards,I didn’t even require an eyepatch. My follow up was this morning and I can resume my regular duties including driving. If you need to have this surgery, I highly recommend you do it. Now my sight is crystal clear!

@matthewpadgett9526 Жыл бұрын
@@iringa77 No, it’s absolutely amazing ! They actually put the medication in your eye when they are doing the surgery, afterwards you will see slight movement in your eye, that’s the medication, your body will absorb it after 1 or 2 weeks. If someone else were looking into your eye, they would not see the medication in your eye, it’s only noticeable to you.

I had cataract surgery at Mass Eye & Ear Infirmary in Boston about a week ago. When they took the eye patch off the following morning I had excellent vision. I didn't even need new glasses. The vision in the eye measured at 20/25. The eye surgeon told me that an outcome like that is rare as most people at least need new glasses. I guess I was just lucky and everything fell together just right.

I had the 2nd eye done 2 days ago. I love how I now see. Next day follow up visit, the Doc said I did not need glasses anymore to drive. My eyes are now "20-25 plus". That's how they termed it. If you need this surgery, it's fast & pain free. I recommend you to do it.

After my cataract I could hardly see anything. It was like a thick fog. Literally I could not distinguish between the house at the bottom of my garden and the sky. I was so worried I went to the eye emergency clinic 2 days after. The guy said there was a bit of the lens left in but that could be lasered out later. After 4 weeks little improvement. At 4 week checkup the specialist told me to stop using the steroid drops they gave to me as the pressure was high. He then gave me gkaucoma drops. Within 24 hours my sight recovered! Such a relief, I thought I would be blind! Now its ok with no drops.

In the initial period after cataract surgery, the lens could possibly get de-centred or displaced, or even fall out of the capsular bag in which it is placed, (which is open in front); for this reason those precautions are advised during the initial post op weeks.

Absolutely the lens can move. Mine did. I was high prescription beforehand, and I was not warned of this. I also suffer from dry eyes. I live alone, so I had to keep doing all the normal chores such as vacuuming and bending to feed the cats. I ended up with a slipped lens, a bleed in the eye that has left a permanent brown smear in my vision, a complete wrinkling of the lens capsule by about four weeks after surgery which left me with little vision in the eye beyond fuzzy images for six months afterwards. Then I had to have laser surgery to make a little pin hole in the wrinkled lens capsule to see through. At night, particularly in winter, I have a lot of visual distortion in that eye from when the pupil expands and the hole in the lens capsule isn't big enough to see through clearly. I have to look down and inwards with that eye to actually see well because of the slippage. And the other eye isn't going to be fixed because it just has wear and tear, not a fully ready cataract. So I have one very shorted sighted eye and one long sighted one for the foreseeable future. I don't drive. I don't think I'd be allowed to with my present vision. All my friends had successful surgeries, and I was very disappointed mine went so wrong.

This is a great video with good information. Thank you, doctor!

Brilliant advice - the process reminds me of the the recovery period post LASIK procedure - the eye drops prescribed proved problematic as I had an allergic reaction to the preservative - only by scouring abstracts on University sites did I determine what the problem was and sourced a preservative free alternative. These eye drops came in single use phials. I shall be progressing down the path of cataract surgery and knowledge is key in what to anticipate before/after surgery and potential complications.
