Cataract Surgery
- Thread starter BlueOvalFitter
- Start date
I know, I'm full of questions.
My surgeries are 2 weeks apart. For those of you that had each eye done apart like what I'm having, what was it like to see very well from one eye while the other eye still had a cataract in it? Were you able to adjust until the other eye was done? Were you able to drive?
Any input is greatly appreciated! (3 more days until my 1st surgery-left eye)

Your dominate eye (the one that sees better) will take over and you'll still be able to see. Could put a pirate patch on the weak eye if you want to make the good eye do the work.
Did you have the surgery/surgeries Z06?
One eye done, one to go. 
So when you look at a white sheet..one eye sees yellow the other white...lol.One eye done, one to go.

Not yet. But, I'm becoming an expert though.Are you sick of the eye-drops yet?!
I went to my Dr. for the post op appt. today and she said my eye looks perfect. I read the eye chart and my vision is now 20/60. She told me not to worry because after my next surgery I will be 20/20. I can't wait!
It's amazing how well everything looks after surgery. And, how much detail was missing.

Sent you a PM.
I replied.
I'm having my right eye done July 13th. Man, it's amazing how much better my vision is. I can't wait until my right eye is fixed.
Why are they called HABS? Is that their mascots name? The Lightnings mascot name is THUNDERBUG.
Habs is short for Habitants, the affectionate name for the Montreal Canadiens. Early French Canadians were referred to as Habitants. They were peasant farmers. Some people think the H on their uniform stands for Habitants (Habs) but really is stands for “ Hockey”. But anyway, Go Habs!

Their mascot is Youppi. I actually had to look that up.
My ancestors came from France in the 1700's to settle in Nova Scotia.
From NS they settled in Pointe Coupee Parish in La. 1770 They were Acadian French, which are now called Cajuns.
My last name goes back to 1423 France.
My mother, whom was German, her maiden name went back to 1511 Germany.
So, l might have some Canadian blood in me, ay?
Lightening in 5. Congratulations Bolts.
