Cataract Surgery Errors

When people suffer vision impairment due to cataracts, they may seek relief through cataract surgery. While most cataract surgeries do not result in serious complications, some patients who undergo cataract surgery suffer damage to their vision as a result of the procedure.

If you have suffered vision loss as a result of a cataract surgery, you may be able to obtain compensation through a medical malpractice claim. Examples of medical negligence that may occur in connection with a cataract surgery include:

  • Improper screening of patients to determine if surgery is necessary
  • Providing procedures that are not medically advisable
  • Scratching of the cornea during a procedure, which may cause vision impairment
  • Failure to refer a patient to corneal specialist if the cornea has been damaged

  • Failure to administer antibiotic eye drops

  • Failure to diagnose and treat endophthalmitis (a type of eye infection)

At Rappaport Glass Greene & Levine, we have been advocating on behalf of injured clients since 1968. We have a strong record of results in medical malpractice claims and take pride in our ability to help people who have been injured as a result of medical negligence.

Client Testimonials

  • "Frankie can complete his education, I can give the girls a start in life and I can live my life with dignity and comfort. We are grateful for all those things, but most of all, for your kindness and caring."
  • "Just wanted to thank you for all you've done and continue to do. I learned a lot watching you perform at trial. I feel satisfied and vindicated."
  • "When nobody believed me, you did. When the other lawyer told my parents to settle, you supported me and convinced them to fight. When we won, I cried. I will never forget you."
  • "Everyone told me it was hopeless. You told me the only thing you could promise me was that I would get my day in Court. You kept your promise. God bless you for what you did for our family."
  • "I don't know what I would have done without you. You will always be in my prayers."
  • "I never saw anyone work as hard as you did for us. When the judge told us he hoped we appreciated what you did, I didn't say anything because I was choked up. I want you to know that we do. When people say that lawyers don't care, I tell them about you. Thank you for everything."
  • "When our daughter died we were devastated. Your kindness, understanding and support helped us through the most difficult time in our lives. For that we are eternally grateful."
