I'm worried about my vision after cataract surgery. Is there any possibility that my vision could decrease after the procedure? Also, is there anything else that can be done to improve vision, or are there any long-term side effects I should be aware of?

My husband travels a lot for work, mostly on his bike, and recently I've noticed that the whites of his eyes aren't clear white anymorethey look red, like in this picture I have. He's not experiencing any irritation, burning sensation, or vision problems, so I'm wondering why his eyes are red. Could this be something we should be concerned about?
