Default Under the knife

I underwent cataract surgery yesterday and it was less of a hassle than
the lasik surgery I had seven or eight years ago.

My right eye was the problem (of course - the problems are always on the
right!), and in 15 minutes, I was semi-out from anesthesia, the doc opened
up my eye, removed "the cloud" and put in the plastic replacement.

Went home with an eye patch. No pain, a little bit of a feeling of a speck
of dust in the eye, but not even approaching annoying. Saw the doc this
morning, he removed the patch, examined the eye, put in some drops and
sent me home with instructions to report back in two weeks.

My vision in that eye is close to back where it was when I had the lasik,
and probably will be that good again in a week or so. Right now, I'm at
20/30 in the right eye, and 20/20 in the left. (The left always sees
things more clearly than the right).

The anxiety pre-operation was a bigger deal than the surgery itself.


Glad to hear it went OK Harry. ;-)
