A BETTER 2ND UPDATE EYE SURGERY

[Ron IA]

Bill,
Going for my initial consult this Friday for cataract surgery myself. All the best for a speedy recovery and the results u are looking for.

Bill 8 min. for the left eye and 10min. for the right eye I was awake for both, and it was painless

I had a buddy with cataract surgery 6 mos. ago. It went very well. He confirmed it took about two weeks for everything to optimize.

I'll need it in another year or two. At night from 100 yards, a stoplight is a 12'-diameter starburst. Headlight starbursts are really bad in traffic at night.

Why wait? You need it now.

Oh yea, it is painless no doubt. Did not put me under and I was aware of everything the Dr. & nurses said. Will go back next month on the 13th for the left eye.

That part about "seems" to be brighter is real. I was floored to see the difference and to rediscover what white looks like. I was seeing nearly beige instead! Enjoy...

Yea, I was thinking it had to be different. I was seeing too many things that just looked so much better. LOL.

Cataracts are yellow. You were looking through a yellow filter. If you want to see how bad it was, once your right eye heals a little, but before you get your left eye done, put a yellow shooting glasses lens over your right eye and compare it to your left eye. You will see how yellow your right eye was.

Wishing you well in your recovery.

I need this too but have been procrastinating. Probably going to do it in 2025 if I am still around.

I truly believe you.

I will say it is well worth the effort and I have not even seen the full results yet due to the blurriness.

Wow, Bill. Did not know. If you need anything brother, let me know. Will head your way if needed. I know you are surrounded by great folks, Graham included. LOL.

I totally appreciate that Bro. I think I'm good and absolutely have some of the best folks around me that anyone could ask for.

Gods healing hands do wonders !!!

AMEN TO THAT. Had at least a dozen head praying for me last nite and today. Prayer works.

Good to hear

Cataract surgery went well today in right (trigger) eye. A little blurriness and discomfort now but Dr. says it will improve soon. Seems I can tell a difference already with brightness but probably too soon to tell for sure. Can't wait for the 10 days of healing to get over so I can shoot again. Appreciate all the prayers from all.

Hey Bro, I hope this surgery works out well for you. History has shown this is not a big deal any more and I know you will be fine. Relax and heal!

 

[jackieschmidt]

Already been there.
Just do exactly as the Doctor says and you will be fine.

It’s a miracle what they can do today.

 

[BartsBullets]

Glad you’re doing well! Wishing you a speedy recovery.

Bill,
Wishing you a speedy recovery and quick return to putting bullets down range.
Take care,
Tim

Wishing your recovery goes well. Mine didn't and required laser surgery followup. 4 years, 8 months later I still wish I had never had the surgery. Guess I'm the odd man out. But it will be the cold day before they cut on my left eye.

 

[TommyD11730]

God bless and good luck with the healing.

Glad it went well. We sometimes take our vision for granted. So, so important.

I’m waiting on cataract surgery, MD says they’re not ripe enough yet. Did have two small retinal tears this summer, which required laser surgery. I had a lot of floaters and a grey blob that obscured the vision in my aiming (right) eye. Luckily, it has resolved since then and I can see though a scope again, was a bit scary for a while.

My buddies have all had it done and say it was pretty smooth process. Heal well sir and enjoy the wonders of sight.
