“Glarely vision in right eye?”

I've recently had cataract surgery in both eyes and my right eye has a glarey film over the cornea (or maybe it's internal) since my ophthalmologist lasered my right eye for scar tissue. I've been given moisture eye drops and steroid eye drops but nothing has been able to alleviate this unusual condition. Any other suggestions?

A complete ophthalmologic exam should be performed to determine the cause of your symptoms.
You’ll need to get the cornea checked again. Also see if you are developing a secondary film

Are you sitting or lying down during cataract surgery?

See another ophthalmologist for a second opinion.
You need a good refraction, to determine if your complaints are from the need for glasses. Also, a test to examine the health of the macula (the center of the retina) called an OCT

Not enough information to make a definitive diagnosis. What does your cataract surgeon say about this? If you cannot get a good answer, then seek a second opinion.
