Everytime a doctor says "we don't know why..." my heart start racing
I hear ya!
For the people complaining about the audio there’s a thing called volume on your device. Turn it up. If you literally can’t hear him -get your ears checked. The video does have a softer volume but certainly not worth filling up the comment section.
I do enjoy recommendations from amateur pseudo audio engineers. As a professional in the field the reason for the low audio are these: lapel microphone positioned too far down with limited range, alternatively the microphone itself is too far from the presenter, or the record level on the camera was set too low, or in the production edit, audio settings were not checked and set to unity before the final edit to master. So before you engage in random ill informed commentary please step back and show a little humility and empathy.
Very informative video. For those who are having trouble hearing the low audio, I put my earphones in and turned the volume right up - could hear him perfectly.
Thank you for this. Just had one eye done and looking forward to getting the second eye done.
I just had cataract remove surgery in one eye 3 weeks ago. Right now my vision is better a lot for far distance; reading I need glasses. That's what we planned from beginning. I have no pain or blurry or bright spots or anything unusual at all. Lucky me. In another week I will see my doctor to check my eye for glasses. I copaid 20% out of pocket about $1500. It's worthy.
In 1500$ 3 patients can be treated fully funded in a good hospital in India.
I just had both eyes done last week with premium lens (no glasses needed after surgery) and it cost me around $9,000 (though with insurance). I think it's worth it to have great vision again.
Thanks very much for that I have a red eye when I took patch off , I can see clearly. Thank you.
I concur with ruby hobbs comment - the audio has been recorded very low - it can be re-edited and posted afresh - the content is important and useful for those who are about to take the journey of cataract surgery. What would be useful is an explanation of the eye drops purpose and effect. For example when I had ASIK surgery I had a particular brand of eye drops prescribed for dry eye which contained preservative to which I was allergic. I researched University abstracts on contraindications of certain preservatives - the evidence was clear enough for me to source individual phials of eye drops without preservative.
What? Can't hear a word you're saying, and I can't read lips....
Try enabling closed captions on the clip - best solution for you.
why the teary eye and discharge in eye coners after the phalco procedure
I had both eyes done about 6 weeks ago. My eyesight is much worse that is was pre surgery and I even paid $5k for the Vivity lenses. Everything is much brighter, but vision is less good. Really regretting it.
Same goes to me. I had both eyes surgery 5 weeks ago. But my vision is still blurry. Starburst. So worried. Better to wear glasses than going for surgery.
@@RoseEsrosy.. Same to me.. Vision is so blurry.. But Dr. Said ur operation was good..
Did you have pain for a few days Post OP?
I find it impossible to believe this isn't a zinger pain in this VERUY sensitive area for a few day after it.
This I cant find anyone on YT to answer, its all Dr's cheerleading the OP like ppl selling COLD beer in summer. None of them properly address this procedure, NONE!
Cataract is progressive and becomes blind so glasses only works temporarily. Have to get surgery done . Hope everything will improve
Sorry to hear it. I just had both eyes done few weeks ago with Vivity+Toric lens (for my astigmatism and previous lasik surgery). The first week was blurry and after that my vision is about 20/25 for distance and 20/20 for intermediate & near. I couldn't see well & was scared to death before the surgery. Glad I found a good cataract surgeon near where I live.
3months after the cataract surgery I have pain in right eye;can I consult over phone how to pay the fees
I rubbed my eye after cataract surgery. Within about 1.5 hrs. I noticed about an hr after Surgery I rubbed the eye lid and saw halos its blurry too. Did I move the lens or mess somethimg up? Ill be at the doctir soon for post op, with a day.
I can hear you and sometimes I can see you.
Hi Doc. The situation of my mother's eye after surgery got worse. The lens was dislocated and it cause irritation and blurry vision to her. Our Doctor tried to move the lens on its right place but it keeps on falling off ang being displaced with the pupil. What could be the reason with this after operation situation with her eye? Thanks a lot for replying.
Same thing for my mother please help
Has anyone chosen a holistic/homeopathic protocol for addressing their cataracts? If so please share. I am not believing I want this surgery. There are known and unknown outcomes I'd prefer not to be subjected to. I actually believe there is a physical toll you pay for this surgery that the Eye dr will not be discussing with you in order to get you to go forward with it.
A comment from someone who has undergone eye surgery first removal of a pterygium and later LASIK vision correction - we all have a different healing response therefore the outcome of any surgery is not uniform. And age is a significant factor in the healing response.
Do as much reading on the subject as you can to understand the contraindications and issues that may develop and ensure you are in the best possible health when you finally choose to have the surgery performed. Allow yourself plenty of time for the individual eye to deal properly before having the second eye treated. I understand the healing process can take several months so prepare yourself for the long haul and be patient.
Any idea why I have had two scratched corneas (same eye) 1 the following day of surgery, the other 5 days later?
I can see ya but I can't hear ya !!! lol
I just had both eyes done and now I cannot drive because I can only use one eye if I open both it is like I have double vision. It happens when I turn my head to the left but not the right I see double side to side. Had my one- month checkup and they said I have to wait 3 months to see what happens very disappointed any ideas?
Have you found any solutions. My mom going through the same thing
The audio is poor. Can barely hear what he is saying.
Volume is very poor. Thank you
Why my close sighted eyevision gone very weak after cataract surgery?
Is it Normal?
Hi Neetu
There are many reasons for this I am afraid. The most common cause of gradual blurring of vision after successful cataract surgery is clouding of the thin layer of tissue that is left behind at the time of cataract surgery called the posterior capsule. It is left behind to support the new plastic lens inserted at the time of cataract surgery but it can go cloudy causing the vision to blur. If this is the problem it is easily treated with some painless laser taking only a few minutes in the out patient department called a YAG laser which will return the vision to how it was immediately after cataract surgery.

I had Cataract surgery. The surgeon suggested a distance lense. Pre operation I was myopic in both eye and Glaucona in my left eye which was having the operation. He didn't have access to my health records. Uneventful surgery happened and I was given the lense power after my operation on a card +5.5. I now have severe anisometropia as I am now +1.5 left eye and -3.5 in my right eye, can't use glasses or contact lenses. I have been on pred eye drops since the operation. Should the surgeon have insisted on keeping me myopic due to the glaucoma? It's been suggested that they operate on my right eye to balance things up but I have refused and requested a piggy back lense in my left eye to put me back in to myopia. The surgeon also aggregated my scleral buckle and I am recovery from that operation as I type. Just curious on your thoughts about the lense though. The surgeon was very dismissive of myvv BBC questions to the point in which we fell out at the beginning because he didn't like me asking so many questions.
Hi Doctor
why do I see half moon light at the lower part of my field of view which is very annoying and uncomfortable.
You have retinal detachment
That's what they call "negative dysphotopsia" and quite many people have this symptom after their cataract surgery. I found Dr. Shannon Won's videos and he explained about negative dysphotopsia and how to fix it, etc.
I just had both eyes done few weeks ago. Though I did see some flickering/ glistening in the first 5-7 days but after one week they were all gone.
A day or so after my cataract surgery I suddenly got a fairly significant floater.
It appears to be attached towards the top (of my vision).
It swings across my vision in the opposite direction of my eye movement - when I look to the left, it swings to the right, when I look to the right it swings to the left.
It 'swings' because it appears to be attached at the top, so it swings like a pendulum. It is not free floating, does not rotate, and does not float around. Its position
is stable.
When I called my surgeon about it, she minimized it, said I would just have to live with it.
It has been 5-7 years or so and is still there, although I notice it less.
IDuring my regular eye exam today, the doctor didn't seem to know anything about it (this is someone different, not the person who did the surgery).
Can you point me toward more information as to what this might be? What is this called? Where in my eye would this be?
Hi Dave, It is likely to be due to a clump of jelly called vitreous that occupies the main eye cavity behind the lens. If you have had it for so long it is unlikely to be associated with anything serious such as a tear in the retina. It can be removed with an operation called a vitrectomy but if is in not causing you too much trouble and you have already tolerated it for this length of time it may be best left alone.
Hope this helps
Peter
@@caramelclothing Peter, this floater suddenly appeared the day after my cataract surgery. Which is why I question it could have been in the vitreous. When I called my surgeon she minimized it. She said she always tries her best to remove all the lens material and other material prior to installing the new lens. It seems possible to me that this 'floater' is material that resides in the sack containing the lens, that came loose - not material in the vitreous.
My question is, can the location of this floater be determined (non-invasively)?
Can inspection determine whether this floater is in the vitreous or in the sack containing the lens (possibly as a result of the surgery)?
@@jkyoft78 sounds like you have what I had, the residue that got left behind gradually made my vision really cloudy, I had to have laser treatment its called YAG, look it up
@@vallee3140 Sounds like my issue, I had both eyes done in early December, I know that I have PCO in the right eye & probably will get it in the left as well, I will get Yag this summer.
@@omfug7148 must say it was so easy never felt a thing, unlike when they did the cataract in my left eye, and now I have a lot of problems in both, wish I'd not bothered.
Can’t hear

Ask for a piggy back lense to the imbalance.
Hello. My mother has her cataract surgery on 22/10/2018(Left eye) and 29/10/2018 on the right eye. everything was fine.

I had my both eye surgery one after another within 2 days. I feel something like floaters which makes me sacred.. As though someone is beside me.. Each time I turn left or right.
And having pain on my left eyes up to eyebrow and sometimes severe headache.
I told my surgeon and he prescribed some medicine for me. But after 2 days the pain starts again.
Anyway has a remedy?
My mom had surgery yesterday. They removed the eye patch today and she don’t see anything. Doctor said she has cornea inflammation and told to use prednisolone every hour and she should be better. I am very worried now. Any advise ?
How is your mother now? Is she ok now? my mom too, after cataract surgery, got infection and now the doctor remove the germs with intravitrual injection.
Prednisolone every 3 hrs, moxifloxan every hour and atropine sulfate 3x a day
i see a black kind of blurrry bubble in the bottom half of my vision ??
How are you now
Very bad audio. Hard to understand
Sorry, your information was dulled by your presentation.
Excessive farting after surgery suggests you change your food intake.
I had cataracts in my third eye. Doctors say good.
You have a third eye?
You need ALOT more volume on your presentation. Please re do it. Thanks.
just turn up your speakers, I had to.
What a bunch of bs.
