Blurred vision in one eye 10 yrs after cataract surgery

Saw eye doc a month ago for regular checkup, eyes fine except for being dry. Told to use Zatidor & have. Beginning 1 week ago, blurry vision in left eye. Any ideas what this might be?

According to me, Your vision may be blurry or hazy immediately after LASIK or any other type of refractive surgery. Clarity should improve within a couple of days, but it may take several weeks for your vision to stabilize completely. You can use Eye drops and medication.

No clue. Too many possible causes. Hopefully your 'eye doctor' is an Eye MD ophthalmologist. If so go back for re-exam. If not find a highly regarded ophthalmologist and go in to see for another exam for your new complaint.

My “eye doctor” is a very well-qualified Board Certified Opthalmologist, and since today is Sunday I thought I might get a helpful response here.
I apologize for the duplicate question.
Call tomorrow, report the new problem and get in ASAP.  
Read from another site ~ A patient had cataract surgery 8 years ago and a couple months ago her artificial lens moved out of place affecting her vision. Her eye doctor is moving it back in place with surgery.
That happens but is rare less than one in 500 to 1000 cases.
Thanks for the info, Dr Hagan, very educational.
Happy to help
