Sorry, but I just now saw this post. I have also had cataract surgery in both eyes with no problems, but have since learned that I have macular degeneration; the wet kind in my left eye and the dry kind in my right eye. I get a shot in m left eye to slow the growth, but what I really wanted to know is if anyone ever told you to use eye drops? It sure seems to me that might help with your problem, although since I'm no doctor I don't know that for a fact. You might want to ask your doctor about that when you see him. I use them twice a day, but was warned NOT to use Visine. Good luck.
