Do I have a malpractice case due to dr performing cataract surgery and monovision lenses but placed them in the opposite eyes they were intended for?

Obviously, if the opthomologist inserted the wrong lenses into your eyes, then he made a medical mistake. Presumably, however, the lenses are switched, your damages would be mitigated. If that has already been done and your vision is still more compromised than expected, there will issues of whether the poor outcome was related to the insertion of the wrong lens or something else.  If you want to investigate a medical malpractice case you should contact a local medical malpractice attorney (one in your state).  They take these cases on a contingency basis which means you only have to pay if you succeed.  Additionally, initial consultations are usually free. You can use the "Find a Lawyer" service through this website to research medical malpractice attorneys.  Then, visit each attorney's website and look for a firm that has a record of successful verdicts.  Below are some articles you may find helpful.  They are written for a New Jersey audience (where I practice) but the ideas discussed in these articles usually apply in most other jurisdictions as well.
