Cataract surgery

[wifeofjack]

I just finished with cataract surgery on both eyes. Had the right eye done and 3 weeks later the left eye. I had so much anxiety about the procedure as I hate anything to do with the eye, but it went very well. My surgeon was so good, he understood my situation and I was given something to calm me down and lower my blood pressure so he could do his work. I am so happy I had it done, I can now see distance without glasses, colors are far more vibrant, and I see so much better than I have in years. I do need readers, Hubby had his done several years ago and has an abundance of readers all around the house so he is sharing with me. I need to get out and find my own more feminine styes but for now will use what is available to me. The drops are a bit of a bother but will continue them as prescribed and hope for the best. Good luck to you.

the difference in colors, sharpness and clarity is amazing. I have to have readers for close up and I still have pretty sharp vision for distance but because of an astigmatism and I continue to wear glasses simply for the convenience of not having to carry readers with me. My glasses are trifocals but it is ever so minor a correction.

My experience also. Done last year.

As for glare at night, I do find the newer car have horrendously bright lights. Not so bright before the surgery.

How are the toric lenses at night? You experiencing the glare some complain about with them?

I haven’t had a big issue with them. Only see halos when the light comes in from the side and hits the edge of the lens. Tho, to be honest, I don’t drive a whole lot at night.
