That is when I am outdoors. I asked the retinal specialist. He explained that it was the new lens put in place of the cataract-clouded lens. Without a cloudy lens, I naturally receive more light. When I am in the car on a barely sunny day, my eyes hurt. When the sun is bright, my eyes are in such pain that is unbearable. I actually have to close my eyes!
I believe it has been five years since I had my cataracts removed. From what I have read at first too much light is a problem to which people slowly adjust. This problem has only been evident for the last 6-12 months. Supposedly, this too much light problem is only in those new cataract surgery patients.
I will have to purchase prescription sunglasses. Oh, I furrow my brown very often now when outdoors, so I need to quit that.
Now, the reason I even mention this is I wonder if anyone else is having a problem with eyes sensitive to light years after cataract surgery. ??? Have you had cataracts removed?
