6 wks after cataract surgery, still see peripheral shimmering light. implants 11.5d; 13.5d. what if symptoms do not improve as dr thinks they will?

Cataract : It's best to have a close follow up with optometrists that performed procedure to rule out any issues with placement.

What type of implant: If it was a multifocal implant, it is common to see glare and haloes. If you are seeing flashing lights, see your eyeMD for dilated exam. If lights shimmers this is likely haloes from the implant and usually go away/brain adapts in weeks-months. Rarely are implants exchanged if such symptoms continue but is an option if continues.
