I will most likely have to wear reading glasses only. Opthamologist says the lens implants are cut to the proper prescription to give me 20/20 in each eye. This Wednesday and the following Wednesday I am having SLT laser surgery to open ducts in the eyes to allow the pressure to drain as I also have glaucoma and the eye drops I use irritate my eyes terribly. Six weeks after that I will have further laser surgery to remove the membranes that are making my vision cloudy plus a little laser surgery to correct my right eye to 20/20. These folks can do miracles but it takes forever at my age as it takes me longer to heal nowadays. Oh well, getting older is certainly better than the alternative. Just think: fifty years ago you wouldn't have had ANY of those options! We live in phenomenal times, don't we? gloria p
