Brief Answer:

You need to get examined!

Detailed Answer:

Hi,

Your preliminary information seems to suggest an infection. It could be viral but with a thick yellowish secretion, this is often suggestive of a bacterial infection.

You will need antibiotics eye drops for this. Also, the pain, redness, blur vision and cataract surgery further mandate an eye exam.

Hope I have answered your query.

Take care
