Hello
Welcome to Health care Magic.

I reviewed your history.
It seems from the history that you are having symptoms of blurred vision and distortion following a surgery for retinal detachment.
Cataract surgery will help in relieving these symptoms as cataract will itself cause blurring of vision.

Hence I advice you to consult your doctor for examination and surgery.

Hope this is helpful to you.
Do write back to me for further questions.

Thank you
With regards
I find this answer helpful
