I was surprised as well. It can be removed simply I'm told. It possibly would explain some visual anomalies I experienced a couple of months ago. I think people should be informed when they have them put in.
It may not be something that happens often. I know several people who have had cataract surgery and none of them had a problem afterwards. I do agree that the doctor should bring that up on initial consultation.
EDIT: I found this after I responded:
Posterior capsular opacification (PCO). PCO is fairly common after cataract surgery, occurring in about 20% of patients.

I don't know. Supposedly, having a serious reaction to the vaccine means that your body is developing the antibodies to protect you. They think that those who have a bad reaction to the first shot means that you've had Covid and that reaction would be like the second shot if you haven't. Frankly, I think it will take more time to really know what everything means. In the interim, the vaccines are our best chance of staying out of the hospital and dying should we get the virus, both of which are good things. :)
