Re: Cataracts
Bakerman, there are no needles involved at all.Re: Cataracts
Nor cataracts but had a "Stent" (( a small tube thinner than a human hair) insert behind one eye to relieve pressure. As Fogey says they numb the eye with drops first.Re: Cataracts
Two years ago I was told I had the start of cataracts in both eyes. At my eye appointment a couple of weeks ago I was told the cataract in the right eye has remained the same but the one in the left eye is bigger. The optometrist said it would be some time before I needed an op.Re: Cataracts
Yes, I had cataract surgery on my left eye a couple of years ago. It was no problem whatsoever, and I was home by lunchtime and walking my dog the next day. I know the other eye needs doing but am holding off for the moment as I did not want to go on the waiting list because I had cancer surgery and chemo and felt that was enough to cope with.
