My wife goes in for cataract surgery Monday morning on right eye, then two weeks later for the left eye. Doctor has excellent reputation, has done this for half the people in Yuma, still it's hard not to have some trepidation. Have her convinced to obey ALL the doctor's instructions to the LETTER, probably don't have anything to worry about it but I do anyway.
Like about 5 years back my dad (about 65 at the time) had this done cataract/ lens implants does. He had wore glass since the age of 5 he read with out glasses his whole life but could tell who was across the room with out glasses. at the time of the surgery one eye was 20/80 the other was 20/200 after every thing was said and done he was 20/20 both eyes but does now use just cheap reading glasses to read. 100% opposite of his whole life . I'm sure she will be fine and totally happy with everything after healing is complete
