Anyone else notice a tint in glasses after surgery?

Had both of my eyes done last year, and after getting my first pair of glasses I noticed a slight yellow tint. Figured it was just a blue light filter or a side effect of transitions(never had them before surgery).

Fast forward a few months I got another pair after my rx changed, didn’t opt for transitions as I hated the tint, but these also had it. My script changed slightly so I had them remade(for free thank god) but told them no coatings at all(AR, blue ight, etc). Nope, the tint is still there.

So now I’m thinking it’s somehow an artifact of the surgery, maybe the cataracts just masked it beforehand.

Even my old pairs all have a yellow tint now. The only ones that don’t are the pair of readers I wore during my healing period.

It makes the world look duller, colors are much more vibrant when I take them off. I’ll probably try contacts just to be rid of it(and progressives).

One thing I’ve noticed is that sunlight is a big factor, at night the tint isn’t nearly as strong.

Long story short, I paid for a monthly subscription and the app won’t let me access any other of its features. I’ve emailed the developer but haven’t heard back.

I submitted a request for Apple to refund me but they said it’s not eligible.

I’m curious, for anyone who can switch which eye you’re focusing through, how did that change after prisms and/or VT?

My assumption is that that “ability” would be lost since both eyes are actually working together now.

I haven’t had my NVM exam yet, got another week to go for that. So I don’t know the specifics of my BVD besides my hypertropia, but I’d be shocked if the doctor said I didn’t have it.
