Be glad - once you are allowed to read this - that you are having this done now. When my Great Uncle had it done, more than 50 years ago, he had to lie flat in bed for two week, with a sandbag on either side of his head and one on his forehead!

Good news on the first, and good luck on the second!!! The no reading part would be so difficult! But, good eyes are worth the sacrifice.

Barbara, I'm glad to hear the cataract surgery on the first eye went well, I'm sure the other one will, too.A nuisance that you can't read, but you will be able to soon.
I may have to get it done within a few years, also, I missed my spring appointment with the eye doctor. I really need new screen glasses.
Wishing you all the best on the next one!

You will be so happy with the results once you have both done. I had both done 3 years ago, and it was the easiest, quickest, most pain free procedure that I ever had. Of course the results were just awesome - no more glasses except for reading, and I could finally see true colors again. The worst hassle was the eyedrops for several weeks, but a small price to pay for perfect vision. I hope your results are as great as mine.

I agree- it was easy and painfree. The only problem is that now with only one eye done I have very different vision on both eyes. Left eye with glasses sees sharp in reading distance. Right eye with glasses doesn't see anything.
Right eye without glasses sees sharp on reading distance, left eye without glasses doesn't see anything.
For the first time in my life I am searching for my glasses- as I prefer now to already to walk without them.
Well, Tuesday is the next and during the next week I have to kittensit anyway

That's funny, but I know exactly what you mean. It took me 2 or 3 weeks to get out of the habit of looking for my glasses. When you've worn glasses for over 50 years, then old habits are hard to break.Originally Posted by Barbara

Best of luck with your second surgery.
