Cataract surgery is not the ordeal it was years ago, in case you're worried about that. My big brother had one removed 3 or 4 years ago. He called a few days later and said "Gee, the world is a colorful place now, did you mess with the saturation?"

Eyes are tricky - it could be a cataract, or something else. Get thee to the doc ASAP, the earlier these things are caught, the better the outcome.

Dad, over the past year-or-so, has been battling "the big 3" - glaucoma, macular degeneration and slight cataracts. They have new treatments, especially for the macular degeneration, and his vision is now better than it's been in a while - he needed new glasses this fall!
