My Uncle had Cataract Surgery, it was straightforward and successful.
I’ve been experiencing eye pain and blurriness, and I’ve been told this is likely due to Cataracts.

Some people with autosomal dominant optic atrophy and cataract develop disturbances in the function of other nerves (neuropathy) besides the optic nerves. These disturbances can lead to problems with balance and coordination (cerebellar ataxia), an unsteady style of walking (gait), prickling or tingling sensations (paresthesias) in the arms and legs, progressive muscle stiffness (spasticity), or rhythmic shaking (tremors). In some cases, affected individuals have hearing loss caused by abnormalities of the inner ear
(sensorineural deafness).
