My vision is still blurry after cataract surgery. Do I need another operation?
Not necessarily. Blurry vision after cataract surgery can have several causes, including residual nearsightedness or astigmatism, dry eye, posterior capsule opacification, IOL position, or retinal disease. At First Samsung Eye Clinic, we investigate the cause first and discuss whether medication, laser treatment, or IOL exchange would be most appropriate.
