    Thumbs up Cataracts-both eyes done!

    I had my followup with my Eye Dr today. Distance vision is 20-20 & I only need reading glasses. I honestly cannot remember EVER seeing this well & I LOVE it! Of course, I have never had 20-20 vision before, even with corrective lenses.
    Bride Colleen & I went to the Cleveland Cavs basketball game Sunday & I was able to read every number & every letter on the scoreboard & other signs around the Arena. I think I spent more time looking around than watching the game. For those of you who have had bad eyesight & then had it repaired, you'll understand the wonderful sense of freedom I am feeling. It is all GOOD!

    I'm green with envy. The only good thing about my vision is that when I take my glasses off I really can't see myself in the mirror.
    I can think of few acts more selfish than refusing a vaccination.

    Mike,

    That is wonderful news. I am starting to gather up the nerve to have my cataracts taken care of.

    Maybe he'll stop casting to shadows and actually in the direction of the fish.

    Sorry Mike I just had to. Congrats on the operations, you were in my prayers.
