Suggest Treatment For Fovea Eye Infection

My left eye. I think fovea is not functioning, since childhood. Can see overall but not any specific object. Any treatment? I have a problem since childhood with my left eye. Now I am 67. I have had a cataract operation a few days back, right eye. I think the fovea (left eye) is not functioning. Is there a treatment. I can see overall but not any specific object.
