anyone ever had cataract surgery? signed up for it in a few months, a little nervous.

3:07 am

ursh

hi rbud - i have had both eyes done - life changing

3:09 am

ursh

it is almost a painless procedure and makes an enormous difference to you sight - so much clearer and brighter :) go for it

3:10 am

ursh

3:11 am

rbud

I am hoping so. Anything good to know about recovery? I know not to rub my eyes

3:13 am

ursh

here you leave with an overnight patch - check up the following day - leave with drops for a couple of days and be gentle with the eye and all is good

3:13 am

rbud

good to hear an encouraging word. Several folks I know seem happy with it. It's just so - well, it's my eyes, scary.

3:15 am

ursh

there is always a risk with surgery which is why they only do one eye at a time for just in case but I dont know anybody who has had a failed cataract surgery

3:18 am

rbud

yes, he said the risk is super low, less than a bit of a percent. and that sounds about like the same after-surgery procedure. thanks for the good word. :)
