I had cataract surgery on my left eye in December of 2020. Diagnosed with MM August 2020. I drive tractor trailers for big employer. For 9 months my other eye getting blurry. Waiting list for cataract surgery was 5 months. So was driving with one eye closed to get clear vision. Worked but would not do again. Nighttime was the worst. Well finally had right eye cataract surgery. My Doctor said old lense was really bad. So after healing, my vision now 2020!!!!! Yeah . Just need reading glasses for up close. I really believe this is due to my steroids Revlamid, dexamethasone, Ninlaro. I’m 61.

Good question. Yes mine has gotten worse.

Greetings from Alaska this is day four after cataract surgery my sight was getting to be pretty bad. I had prisms around all lights. I’ve been off of treatment for a month to get surgery done the next time it’ll be the right eye, but that won’t be until the end of October or November. The doctor said it was really bad and I am sure the Velcade dexamethasone and Revlimid, as well as the high-dose melphalan that I had before my SCT are the cause. I’m also suffering with extremely dry eyes so that’s been an issue. I ended up with scratch on my cornea. Boy do we have a lot of issues we have to pay attention too. The best part of this I won’t have to pay $500 anymore for eyeglasses that makes me happy.

I we t to the eye Dr the other day and my vision. My left eye had really changed. I had on cataract and he now says there are ywo . It is a different type and very aggressive I could barely see the eye chart. My oncologist wants to talk to the surgeon and set up for me to ha e cataract surgery. My eye Dr a
Said it will continue to grow and get worse fast. So all I can say if you ha e eye problems ha e them checked .best of luck to all. LYNN n Va
