Suggest Treatment For Fatigue After Lens Implanted Surgery

My husband is 39 years old, 167cm, about 87kg, with no medical conditions, had mono-focal lens implanted in left eye due to aggressive growth of cataract from center of eye. It is 2 weeks post surgery and he feels exhausted from half a day's running around to do errands when that was never the case before surgery. What's causing this fatigue from the use of his eyes?

Hello,

The fatigue is not exactly due to the eye surgery. You may want to get him examined by a physician just to be sure there is no other cause for the fatigue. You can get his hemoglobin test just to know if anemia is the cause. Otherwise cataract surgery does not have any effect on general condition of the body.

Best wishes
