Event or Problem Description
A non-healthcare professional reported that following a cataract extraction with an intraocular lens (iol) implant procedure, patient can see okay at a distance (although not as well as someone else who got multifocal lenses decades ago).Near to moderate distance was worse than prior to surgery.It's affecting her ability to see during videoconferences at work, triggering migraines, and she had injuries from difficulty seeing while doing work around the house.Patient's distance vison was significantly better, her intermediate and near vision were significantly worse than prior to surgery and this was negatively impacting her life.Since the surgery/lens implant, she has much worse vision at arms length or nearer, for example, seeing at video meetings, identifying typing errors on the computer/cell phone, extreme difficulty reading cell phone, headaches and migraines triggered from straining to see at work, minor injuries and extra time required due to difficulty seeing while doing tasks with tools such as the electric drill, being able to see the timer on watch at the gym, opening the lock on her locker at the gym, have to ask friends to read labels, instructions, etc.For her.The difficulties were not only physical but are also impacting her social/emotional health.She used some vacation days to rest her eyes from strain at work, but did not want to/would not be able to continue to do that indefinitely.Her ophthalmologist warned that halos can be a side-effect of multifocal lens but she accepted that; however, she did not expect that a multifocal lens would lead to worse intermediate vision and near vision than before.There are two medical device reports associated with this patient.This report is associated with the left eye.
