My 23-year-old son experienced sudden blurred vision and was diagnosed with Leber's hereditary optic neuropathy. What is this disease? Is it dangerous and can it cause blindness? (Anh Thu, Hanoi)
Blurry vision after cataract surgery can be due to the eye not yet adapting to the artificial lens, the lens being slightly dislodged, or complications.
Wearing UV-blocking sunglasses, having regular eye exams, and managing blood sugar and blood pressure can help keep your eyes healthy and reduce the risk of cataracts.
