[trams75]

can yag surgery help lessen night time glare?

You know at this point you need to see a real live Eye MD in person. There are too many causes of glare to discuss.

Hi,
You mentioned that a cloudy posterior capsule could cause glare,
what else could cause glare, and what do you think has caused me to
have a burning sensation?
What if anything can I do about it?
Thank you again

Yes you might not know it but it could be the cause of your night glare. It should not cause burning sensation

Could I have a cloudy capsule and still see as well as I do and not know it?
I knew I had a cateract  in one of my eyes because I couldn't see much out of
my eye and night driving was bad.  
Now I  can see to drive at night but the glare is bad and my eyes don't feel well
and I have burning.

Thank you for all of your comments

yes sometimes the capsule is cloudy immediately after the cataract is removed. An Eye Md looking at your eye can tell

How would I know if I have a cloudy posterior capsule.
After I had cateract surgery the glare was almost
right after the surgery.  Could a clody posterior
capsule happen so fast?

Yes if the cause is a cloudy posterior capsule
