You may have read my post few weeks ago praising the NHS. Yesterday I had the 2nd cataract removed and of course all went well. The staff at the clinic are such a great lot. Woohoo!! hopefully in 6 weeks time I will be able to get the car out of the garage and regain my independence. My son has been an angel running me about (virtually no near public transport).
Best wishes to you all for Christmas and the New Year.

So pleased for you Lorna. Will you still have to wear glasses or not?

Thanks Shirl. Not sure about glasses until I have my eye test. Has definitely improved my lazy eye (first one to be done) as I suddenly realised I can read any wording on TV better without my glasses but had to put them on to read small print. Maybe after 56 years I may have to wear glasses just for reading!!

I had mine done in june/july 2010 and have had good results.  I have found I could do without glasses except for reading and driving at night.  However, in some cases you can have cells regrow on the lens capsule, that is left in your eye.  This has happened with me , mostly in one eye and my vision has gone cloudy again in that eye.  This is simple to solve with a zap from a Lazer taking a fews seconds.  I am due to have this done on the 3rd Jan!

But all in all - a very good outcome!  I hope yours causes no problems!

So good to hear Lorna.  Must have been difficult to have to ask for lifts during the run up to Christmas.  Glad all went well.
