Had cataract surgery in both eyes in 2017. Had secondary cataracts corrected with laser procedure. One in 2019 and one in 2021. The last one was on my left eye. I have the expensive lens that are supposed to help you not wear glasses. My vision was corrected to 20/30 distance and as I was told I do need bifocals in certain low light situations. Now the issue.

When I move my eyes to look to the right it seems like there is a pause in my left eye in focusing on what I'm looking at. I told my doc that it was like a screen as a line would move across it to a focal point and then finally catch up with the right eye. I see something moving across my field of vision seems like on the extreme left edge of my left eye. When I went for an exam I was told this was normal.

I've talked with more than a dozen friends who have had the surgery and none of them report any such vision issues. There seems to be a feeling of something in my eye as well. Has anyone experienced any thing like this?

Thanks
