Got to
admit that I do see better, but still a ways to go.
Once I get
the other one done, I can ditch the glasses.
But will be
having to get reading glasses.. and that is ok
Too.
The surgery
itself was easy peasy. Nothing to worry about..
Says I
AFTER the fact. Took about an hour for
the evaluation. Then 3 minutes for the actual surgery.
The worse
part and painful was the Novocain like
Shot on the
cheek bone.. Which has gave me a partial
Black eye. I saw my blood pressure climb as I was
Going thru
the whole process (they take it 3 times) and
When given
a choice of having a mellow out med.. I went
For it. They taped my eye shut and put a ball on it
for about
15 minutes.
The King said next time he is bring a ball just like it and put it on the good
eye when they do that.. and take a picture .. with BUG EYES to share with my
grandchildren.)
Funny guy..
not..
But once in
the surgery room, the lowered a white mask like thing on my face (ball was
already removed before I went in) I could feel them touching the eye area..
kind of.. and then he said .. OK, ALL DONE?
ALL DONE?? YOU DIDN’T TAKE THE
TAPE OFF.. lol.. but I guess they had, and then did the surgery.. As the King
watched it all from the next room. I sat
for about 20 minutes after I left the room. (walked out) and then they explain
everything I had to do at home.. gave me paper work.. AND then they gave me a
gift. I had a choice of 3 things.. a baseball cap, a coffee mug.. OR a vest.. I
chose the really nice black vest.
So.. so
far.. all is good. Got a appt. with the local dr. and then it is back again on
the 6th of Sept. for the second one. It will be a lot easier and faster
this time.. As it is the surgery only, and I know what I am going in with.. so
the blood pressure should mellow out.
Looking forward to it.
So if your
Dr. says you need cataract removed … go for it. It is easy peasy..
