Warning!! re Cataract surgery!!

I'm scheduled for cataract surgery tomorrow morning!
My right eye was done in late July, and it was a a textbook perfect procedure. I did have some glaring brightness and blurriness during the first couple days which is to be expected. My Ophthalmologist had been watching my cataracts for quire a while. He also monitors my retina vein occlusion in case I need to return to the retina specialist. I went on vacation in early September, so we decided to wait until afterwards for this 2nd procedure so that I didn't have to be bothered with the eye drops routine while traveling. It is important to follow all of the pre/post instructions.
I have worn eyeglasses since I was 16 and needed them for a driver permit. I don't know whether I will need them afterwards, but I sure would like to thread a sewing needle with ease!

I hope that you got along as well with your second surgery as you did the first!
As such, you are now done with cataracts and can cross that off the list !
Best wishes to you!

If you are short sighted I recommend you do LASIK as well at the same time of cataracts surgery so that you don't need eyeglasses afterwards
