What to do if my doctor performed cataract surgey on my and now I have permanent muscle damage in my right eye?
Question Details: He used 6 syringes of anesthesia to numb the nerves prior to surgery. Have photos taken right after surgery. I have permanent muscle damage now, the eye is out of focus and I have only partial vision correction with $400 special prescription glasses. The doctor also inserted the wrong lens into my eye, reducing night vision by 30%. I have not been able to drive at night and have only limited driving ability during the day. Additionally, I have lost much business revenue. Do I have a case?
You may very well have a case and you have significant damages. California has specific laws limiting malpractice damages and making malpractice cases difficult. Nonetheless, a number of attorneys still prosecute malpractice cases in California. I suggest you call some to see what they can do for you.
