Cataract surgery is an effective procedure that helps restore the vision of Cataract patients.
The doctor removes the cloudy lens and replaces it with a clear artificial lens during the surgical procedure.
Many experience improved vision after the surgery, but some may also experience double vision after the procedure.
Let us explore more about double vision after Cataract surgery, its causes, and treatment options.<\/p>\n\n\n
Double vision or Diplopia can be an uncommon symptom for many patients after Cataract surgery<\/a>. Cataract surgery can affect eye movement muscles and lead to Strabismus or restrict the extraocular muscles.
However, a study<\/a> states that double vision after Cataract surgery is mainly caused by misalignment of the eyes (Strabismus) and extraocular muscle restriction.<\/p>\n\n\n
Another study states<\/a> that individuals can also experience double vision due to refractive errors.
The artificial lens takes time to adjust to normal vision and may not provide the exact refractive power needed for optimal vision.
The mismatch can result in double vision as the eyes struggle to focus together.
Consult an eye expert if you experience double vision after Cataract surgery.<\/p>\n\n\n
