Question: I'm 67 year old male, with otherwise normal vision. For the past month, I would wake up with a clear vision, and then as the day progresses, it becomes hazy (not blurry). It then clears up again overnight. I don't have any other symptoms, everything seems to check out fine.

Blinking my eyes or putting drops in them doesn't seem to help, and the cause of the haze looks like something is clouding up something in the front part of my eye, like how a window fogs over. I do not have cataracts, I have IOLs in both eyes, from a long time ago.

I'm seeing my ophthalmologist in a couple of days for a full eye examination. I'm just trying to get a 2nd opinion before I see him. The hazy vision is not so bad now, it does seem to be clearing up. There is a difference between "hazy vision" and "blurry vision", the latter being caused by vision being out of focus for whatever reason. And it is not possible for me to have any cataracts because my natural lens have been removed decades ago.

I forgot to include in my symptoms that a month ago, my eyes were burning and I did suffer from light sensitivity. Again, those symptoms are not so bad now, it seems like whatever it was, I seem to be recovering from it, even though it's taken me a month to get over it. Any ideas what that could have been? Someone else suggested that it's just eyestrain, something to do with inflamed ciliary muscles, and that I just need to give it a rest and go see an ophthalmologist, which I am about to.

Okay, just when I'm about to see my ophthalmologist, I now have bloodshot eyes, and they feel like they are burning. What's your opinion now? Good thing that I'm just about to see my doc.
