General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hello,

Sometimes, the sight will get some changes after cataract extraction due to edema and intervention itself. That's why it will require a few more weeks or even months to fully subside as your MD already stated. As long as everything went fine, you should not get worried and try to have more patience.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Albana Sejdini, General & Family Physician
