Info re. Cataract Surgery

-One eye done at a time; until 2nd eye done, you don’t get the more balanced 20/20 effect
-Best to wait on driving till then so you can see the road in depth
-After both eyes done, only reading glasses needed
-Surgery takes about 15-20 mins.; my dr. did 20 others the day of my surgery; they do about 100/day at the Alex hospital here in town
-Eye is covered for one day then reinspected and drops begin; I’ve had no pain which is typical
-Main eye med runs 4 wks.; antibiotic for 2
-You pretty much need to keep eye covered for 4 wks when sleeping
-You can’t lift anything heavy for a month
