My Serial Stories of Cataract Surgery Post-op

https://www.reddit.com/r/CataractSurgery/comments/1n77g5h/comment/ns71rm5/

I created the above post 3 months ago and mentioned in my last EDIT that my first eye (right eye) surgery was scheduled for December 6, 2025.

Today is December 6, 2025. I got the cataract removed from my right eye and implanted Johnson & Johnson 1-piece IOL.

8 hour post-op:

After I was discharged from the hospital where I finished the cataract surgery at about 11 am, so far have had some feelings:

My operated right eye is sensitive to light, everything looks too bright;

I feel foggy and things are not sharp in my operated eye;

Halos, big halos.

I know it will take 5-6 weeks for my operated eye to fully recover.

I will be continuing to write post-op stories (including both eyes)...
