Wow, sounds like you've had your share of eye issues. Glad you can see though!!I lost my right eye when I was five due to retina detachment. Long story short and thanks to doctors from Dallas to Boston, not only was my right eye saved, but I have 20/20 vision with no line trifocal glasses and a lens implant. Two retina surgeries decades ago, one cataract surgery 15 years ago, glaucoma laser procedures several times. Five drops a day. Not to mention macular degeneration. If it weren't for my eye(s), I would have never spent a single night in a hospital. So far as the cataract surgery, it was a breeze, and you will see better immediately. I don't drive much at night due to the implant causing multiple halo's around every car and street lamp.
Might want to do some footwork on that condition. I never stand on one foot when it comes to these situations.The wife had both eyes done last year and she still has to wear glasses and also now has dry eye and bright light and heat bother both of her eyes.
We're looking into this for sureMight want to do some footwork on that condition. I never stand on one foot when it comes to these situations.
@dustertogo How'd it go? Did they tape the Dixie Cup lookin thing to your face to keep your fixed eye in the clear until follow up?
When Dr. Mac fixed my last one, he remembered I was a car guy. He told me his last patient before me was a Chinese dude. He said he walked in and said, "Hello Mr. Ling. Are you ready to get rid of this cataract? He said Mr. Ling looked up at him and said, " No,no! I no sell Cadarc......I serring Rincoln Continental!"
Hopefully they can determine something that will help with this situation.The wife had both eyes done last year and she still has to wear glasses and also now has dry eye and bright light and heat bother both of her eyes.
HaHa! that's funny right there! As for my surgery, it's been postponed until the 23rd. Hopefully I'll have some good results to report then. Thanks for asking!@dustertogo How'd it go? Did they tape the Dixie Cup lookin thing to your face to keep your fixed eye in the clear until follow up?

I'd bet so! At least that's the way I've been seeing for awhile!If a weatherman has cataracts, do all of his forecasts call for partly cloudy???
Did you all say cataracts or Cadillacs???
I'm having trouble seeing...
