Given retinal history, cataract surgery should be done at a center with retinal backup‚Äîlook for a tertiary eye care hospital or retina specialist for best outcome.

Question

I had surgery about a month and a half ago, and my daytime vision is clear, but as soon as evening comes, everything gets really blurry. Even small text inside or outside looks hazy in artificial light, though it's sharp in sunlight or mornings. Is this normal? The blurriness in low light is uncomfortable and makes it hard to see details.
