Hi..
So did they check the refraction ? Is it getting better with number ?
If yes..it is ok..
Else ,if not improving when the doctor is checking too...then take a second opinion.

Yag laser is required usually after 1 year of cataract surgery. Capsular opacification can't develop this early.
The cloudy vision that she is experiencing maybe because of need of a number as told to you by your doctor.
