Can Cataract Surgery Cause Motion Sickness?
Its been almost 3 weeks since I had cataract surgery on my left eye. When in a car I feel sick looking around and when I see something go by fast. I also have to wear sunglasses most of the time because the light makes me so sensitive and I can't see good, my left eye feels like its bulging out and strange. I haven't been driving because I can't stand the motion going around all around me.

Hello
Cataract surgery will not lead to motion sickness. Increase in light sensitivity can be caused by inflammation induced by cataract surgery.
This requires treatment by use of steroid eye drops.
Hence I advice you to consult your doctor for examination and treatment accordingly.
