Event or Problem Description
Additional information has been requested and received stating the patient complained about fluttering of the vision.It was reported that she had about a 3 week history of these complaints.It was unclear to the physician at the time when the patient reported about the initial complaints if these were strictly related to the iol as these had not been noted until several months after surgery.The physician noted a slight head tremor only seen under magnification on at the slit lamp and thought that perhaps this was contributing to her complaints of fluttering.As the patient complaints did improve with lens exchange, it does appear that the lens contributed to these complaints.The patient reports complaints resolved in the right eye after iol exchange.They persist in the le eye.
