As Dr. O mentioned, their is an increased risk in
capsular tear because your zonules holding the
capsular bag may be weakened from your retina surgery.
The fact that the one surgeon acknowledged he knew there was increased risk and what to do to help prevent it gave me peace of mind.
There are as many cataract surgeons out there as Starbucks, but not all of them have the expertise to do surgery on a previous retina patient.
Ask lots of questions and find the best of the best.
