I had cataract surgery two days ago. The rear capsule crumbled and I had to have a vitrectomy. My vision is slowly improving. Am I correct in assuming I may need more time to heal from this than normal surgery with no complications. Also I have a lot of floaters. What are the chances these will go away without treatment and how long will that take? I am 63 and in good health otherwise.
