The flickering at present is still ongoing and is very tiring, and white reflective backgrounds I try to avoid as my eye is still very sensative to the brightness, but I plan to go back to work next week providing my company doctor agrees, being back at work will hopefully take my mind off the situation and give me something else to focus my attention on as in work related, rather than just worrying unnecessarily about my eye which is what I have been doing. Im 62 and dont class myself as old, but 7yrs ago my 1st eye healed much quicker than my 2nd and I didnt have this flickering, so perhaps Ive got to be more patient, and stop rushing things, Ive been off work for 6wks now, thats 2 more than I would have liked but the flickering was making my head ache besides driving me nuts and I decided to take the extra time off due to worry and was getting quite stressed which wasn't helping me, so after consultation with my optician and doctor I asked for the extra 2 weeks and my doctor agreed. My 1st cataract operation was 7 yrs ago so Im a lot older now, so dont know if this is a factor or not ? as some people take longer to heal the older they get, This flickering in your eyes after cataract surgery sounds exactly the same as mine and having read your comments it seems its all down to time, as in the healing process,Ive been very concerned about this and am seeing my optician tomorrow but Im sure I will get the same answer. I hope as others have said that time is a great healer and that it eventually disappears on its own, as it is driving me nuts at present, perhaps using sunglasses with a side cover on might help me, well its something I'm going to try. I had a cataract operation and Implant in my right eye done about 7 years ago and cannot recollect having these flickering problems then ? my optician said its possible that the light reflection is coming from the implanted lens and radiating around, she said my eye needs time to settle. In bright light I to have this flickering which comes from the left side of my periferal vision and then spreads from left to right and yes its very annoying, as I type this comment I'm having to shield the light with my left hand against the side of my face to somewhat stop the side dazzle it doesnt however stop the flicker when I move my eye left to right, when I'm looking straight forward I dont get the flicker. The exposure time was 1/180 s and the aperture f/ 11.I'm recovering from cataract Implant surgery in my left eye, It''s been nearly a month since my surgery, I've found in the early morning that the light in the partial darkness of the bedroom is not an issue with my eye, but as some of you have already talked about bright light then I have to agree with you all. The picture was shot with a digital medium format camera at ISO 100 and a focal length of 150 mm. It was my goal to push the button at the right moment to get some nice reflections hitting the eyes and creating highlights there. The model was constantly moving her hand to provoke small waves. Otherwise, the blue would have been heavily reduced and turned into a pale grey. The grids were essential, as I did not want this light to hit my lens or the grey background paper. This light was filtered with two stops blue and was kept very low in intensity.įinally, as a backlight over hair and shoulder, I used an Octabox 75 with grids. The picolite was filtered with a single blue gel (one stop).Īs a general fill-in light, I used a P70 standard reflector indirectly via the white walls of the studio. A picolite with its projecting attachment was the best (and beside a Pulso Spot 4 the only) choice to receive the desired effect: It emits a very hard light and thanks to the precise templates, the light can be kept away very easily from the model's body - so only very clear reflections from the water's surface hit her. Large and therefore soft light sources would never cause clear reflections and it would be very difficult to keep their light away from hitting the model directly. Additional fill-in lights were planned to be rather dark and deeply blue. The main intention when setting up this shoot was to create dominant reflections from a water surface on the model's face and body.
