Hello,

Thanks for the query

This could represent a post-operative change, which is likely to resolve. However, without an examination it is difficult to find out the exact cause for such changes.
I will advise you to visit your ophthalmologist who will help you through clinical evaluation and if needed investigation.

Hope this helps.
