Cataract Surgery April 27 UD #15!

[Asiel]

I had my right eye done in January . After a very bad experience with the wrong surgeon I was ready to forget the whole thing but thanks to the encouragement and pep talk from a great friend I decided to go ahead with it after seeing another surgeon. All I can say is - it was a piece of cake , exactly as I had been told. Unbelievable the difference it made, it's a new world out there. I can actually see colours instead of just grey and white or dirty yellow. I'm now waiting to get the left eye done but we have a long waiting list here, I'm hoping to have it done this year , summer would be nice as battling the snow and cold at 4:00 am was the only hard part.

Wishing you the best. I work for an Ophthalmologist. Best advice do what he tells you. Wear your shield whenever you sleep. Take your drops as directed and enjoy that new eye. Sorry to hear about the detached retina, it's a bi%$h

Was home by 5p!!! WHEN I awoke, despite the clear eye guard and tape, I could see across the room! I have never been so happy, elated, thrilled, over the moon, beyond myself, ecstatic. What more can I say? All my life I wished I could see better. No coke bottle glasses, losing contacts etc. I don't know what I did right, but I'm watching TV from across the room. I'll know more tomorrow after the exam. Now I can't use my reading glasses..have to find a weaker pair! A dream come true. OK if I have to wear glasses and still use a contact, but my results are remarkable. My good eye is my GOOD eye! When I focus together,my vision is almost fine. I'll never sleep tonight. I've been giggling all night!

My eye doc is going to be smothered with kisses. I feel blessed so far, a wish come true. I can't even explain how I feel.

Thanks a zillion for all your prayers and well wishes, as usual, they worked! On the way home, I was reading signs! John and I were boogying in the car!
