Eyesight worsen after surgery
I've had an eye surgery on September 2021. Before the surgery, I felt my sight is blur and sometimes I see something like spider webs in my sight. I've checked my eyes to doctor and it said there was cataracts on both of my eyes and  the webs was just ordinary. So we decided to have an operation on my right eye. By the way, I have nearsightedness minus 16.The doctor then operated on my eye and put lense on my eye. After operation, i felt like some water bubble in my sight. A few weeks later, my right eye was red and was given eyedrop medicine, and the redness subdue , but the sight get worsen like there was a layer and now I can only see at 5-10% clear. Is there still a hope for my eye? Which doctor should I consult to?

Answer:
I'm sorry to hear about your experience. It's great that you've already seen a doctor for your eye concerns. Blurry vision and seeing shapes like spider webs could be symptoms of various eye conditions, including cataracts, retinal detachment, or even just floaters.

However, since you've already had eye surgery in September, it's important to follow up with your eye surgeon or another eye specialist to discuss your symptoms post-surgery. They will be able to evaluate your condition, assess the success of the surgery, and provide you with appropriate treatment options, if needed.

In the meantime, make sure to follow any post-operative care instructions given by your surgeon, avoid rubbing your eyes, and protect your eyes from any trauma.

Remember, it's always best to seek professional medical advice tailored to your specific situation. If you have any concerns or notice any changes in your vision, don't hesitate to reach out to your eye specialist for further guidance and support.
