Is Light Headedness A Normal Symptom Post Cataract Surgery?

I had cateract surgery , both eyes. May 30th, right eye, July 16 left eye. I am now experiencing light headedness a month and 1/2 later. Is this a normal thing? I have been told by others that had cateract surgery, this is what they have happeded to them. If it is a normal reaction, fine. How do I cope with this?

Hello
It seems from the history that you are having light headedness following cataract surgery.
This is not a normal thing and requires evaluation.
This can be because of a cause independent of cataract surgery like associated with headaches like migraine or dome other systemic cause.
Ad of now you can take a analgesic tablet and if it does not responds need yo consult your doctor for examination and treatment accordingly.

Thank you
