There are many reasons that your vision is still blurry. See an ophthalmologist.

You might have some residual corneal edema, continue your drops.

Recovery will take a few weeks. Later, check for refractive errors that will require glasses to sharpen your vision.

There are several reasons to have hazy vision after cataract surgery. For instance: the need for post-operative refraction (glasses), post-operative edema (swelling), an opacification of the posterior capsule (often called a secondary cataract), etc. All these possibilities can be diagnosed and treated by your EyeMD ophthalmologist surgeon. Please contact her to
arrange for an evaluation.
