What happens after first eye catarcat surgery ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
See better: After cataract surgery, you will see better in that eye. Depending on how bad the cataract is in the other eye, you may chose to have the other cataract done as well. After surgery, you will need a new glass prescription unless you chose special lenses that allow you to see far and near without glasses.
