Cataract Surgery
« on: October 09, 2019, 03:46:50 pm »
Well I am going for it and I have gone from considering not doing it to not being able to hardly wait.  I very quickly have gone from not having that much of a problem to having a big problem especially in my left eye. So I am now looking forward to getting it one and over with so pray for me if you are a prayer and think positive thoughts for me otherwise.

Good luck, but don't be scared.  I had it done, was terrified because it was an eye, but there's nothing to it.    Let us know when it's over and you can see so much better.

I know a lot of people who have had the cataract surgery.  They all have done well with the surgery and see so much better afterwards.
Have a wonderful day!

I've only heard success stories when it comes to cataract surgery.  No problems, no complications, just better vision.

Good luck. Wish I could do it but I don't have cataracts. I have astigmatism in both eyes besides being near-sighted. the astigmatism is a continuous blurry sight. Not even glasses help. Doc had said I was starting with a cataract in the one ye but the last exam, he said nothing about it. So I don't know if I do or don't have a cataract.

I once had a Chinese friend that I asked if he had a cataract and he said, "Oh No, I have rincon contenental"

Oldbuddy, you are so politically incorrect, it is refreshing.
