What Are The Possible Ways To Remove The Stitch From Eyes?
I had my cataracts removed. Right eye is ok, could be better. Left eye was replaced 3 times with the third folding. The surgeon stitched the lens in place. When I went for the follow up to have the outer stitch removed he looked into the right eye. After telling him I was there for the left eye he looked and said it looks good. He got up and started to walk out. I had to remind him he was to remove the outer stitch.
After removing the stitch I ask what was the dent in my eye? He asked what dent? I said the one at my 11 o'clock. He just examined my eye and did not see the dent. He said it was a stitch and I should come back in 2 weeks. So who can I go to to get this eye corrected ?

What ever you have explained, it requires local examination. If you still have some doubt then go to another eye center for second opinion and stitch removal.
