Lens replacement

My cataracts got so bad I was having double vision. So I had lens replacement surgery yesterday on one eye and next week, the other eye.

The ophthalmologist got me high as a kite on Prince Valium and Versid. That was worth a couple hundred right there. As a bonus he also replaced my old cloudy lens with a multifocal lens.

Improvement was noticeable immediately after surgery and after about 30 hours the new lens allows me to read without glasses. My far vision Is improved but still a bit fuzzy. According to the literature, full recovery and total accommodation can take six months. Essentially my brain will adapt to the lenses.

Next week I get the other eye done.

So far, highly recommended. Ask me again in 6 months.
