I probably should too, but so far I'm doinng ok
You're way too young for that, Tim.
My mother was close to 90 when she had her operation. She paid the $200.00 extra for the soft lenses. The older hard type were no charge...as was the operation.

Actually Don, I've had one since birth! I found that out wwhen I had an eye exam 8 years ago.
Funny that they never caught it with the army physical at Ft. Sheridan, or they ran us through with a basic eye exam and didn't care that much. My left affected eye doesn't want to focus that well anymore, but I'm still doing quite well with my right eye. So, I might have to check out doiing something about it if it gets worse But until then...

Cataract surgery has come a long way in our lifetime. Once you notice
signs of impaired vision it's time to get it done. You won't regret
it.
