... one to go.
Cataracts, that is.
The first eye was done this morning.
It was the more complex of the two since it was the most nearsighted, the most astigmatic and the one with 2 retina detachments.
They first corrected the astigmatism with laser and also made the lateral incision.
Then, a variable toric lens was implanted which corrects for most of the nearsightedness.
Now i just need to give it a few days.
Already I can see much better than before but it’s uncomfortable now that the anesthesia has worn off.
The second eye will be done on the 29th just two days before I go to the 48 Hours at Sebring Club Race.
If all goes well, I’ll be able to drive my Boxster on track again which I haven’t been able to do for a couple of years.
Keeping fingers crosses, hopefully not the eyes
Happy Boxstering
