How’s your Eyes?

Like a lot of people my age (now 69) my sight has been failing over the years.

My last visit to the opticians in March confirmed that my cataracts needed to be

Removed, a visit to the eye clinic in June confirmed this and they do both eyes.

To say i was a bit apprehensive  would be a understatement, after all  i am a man

And us men do not like our sensitive areas mucked about with.

On Sunday 20th July I attended our local hospital (Worthing) to have the first cataract

Removed, you are told in advance exactly what is involved  but you still keep thinking

Is it going to be painful.  Well i need not have worried, 11.05 entered  theatre 11.25 out

And back on ward job done.  Vision in new eye improves every day and is now better than

The other with glasses can’t wait to get the other eye done.  So for those of you who have to

Have this procedure do not worry.
