Complications from YAG capsulotomy?

Posted , 15 users are following.

i had this procedure yesterday because I mentioned to my doctor that my vision through my new Symfony lens was not as sharp as my other eye which has not been altered.  He said my sac that remained from my procedure that now contains the new lens can cause this and performed this procedure right then.   Well, within ten to fifteen minutes afterwards I could hardly keep my eye open much see out of it.   I called when I got home with my concerns and symptoms and was told to use my drops and it should be fine in the morning.   Well, it is not fine.  I still have blurred vision and what little improved vision I got from the Symfony has now deteriorated!  I feel like I have something in my eye like a lash would feel.   This is not a floater which is the usual side effect.   Very concerned now about my eye condition.  Have another appointment today to see what is up.  Anyone else have anything like,this happen as a result of YAG?

    Please tell me what is happening now.

    I have been afraid to make the yag appointment.

    Wish I did not have the cataract surgery and lens.
