Dreaded op

Morning all, looks like another lovely day. I've got my cataract operation today, just waiting to be picked up by hospital transport. I must say I'm not looking forward to it {understatement of the year } but keep telling myself it will all be over in a few hours and I can start looking forward to seeing properly. Hope everyone is as well as can be.

Take care, Christine. XXX

I've heard only good reports about this op Celato, and I'm told that it only takes a few minutes. A friend who had it done says she spent more time having tea and biscuits afterwards, than it took to do the op.

Hi  Christine, l am sure all will go well for you. It is a routine operation and the results are well worth it.

Hi Christine, I hope it all goes well; you may have had it by now. My late mum & my aunt both had this op & said it was great  & no pain. X

My husband had this done in both eyes , a few months apart. There's a little superficial discomfort  - feeling a bit fragile - for the first 24 hours and after that you just sit back and wait for the way the world will open up to you with your enhanced sight. But of course you feel nervous, that's just human nature. Fingers crossed that it all goes well for you.
