Done Cataract Surgery, Myopic, Sea Sickness, Feeling Faint. Expected?
I am 16 days post op 2nd cataract surgery . i have been extremely myopic for 46yrs and now the IOL s have given me a middle focus point which for me means that i will require vatiofocal glasses in about 6wks time. i am currently not wearing any glasses until this time . i am experiencing feeling of sea sickness and feeling faint when i am out in busy shopping area where lots of people are walking towards me; it s kind of like being in a simulator ( which i have never been able to do , unless i close my eyes,because they do make me feel very sick!). Is this to be expected, will it go away when i do get my variofocals?

Hi..
Wearing glasses may give a better and crisp vision than what you have now without glasses.
But the problem of fainting and sickness ( which I think was there before Surgery)
is not related to surgery or the eye.
Don't worry.. Keep taking the post-op medications..
Take care...
