Those little drops are $$$, just glad I got the insurance to assist. Oh and the little eye shield they will give you , is worth wearing for sleeping or if you are a person that subconsciously rubs their eyes.

I can make both sides of this discussion.
Including the major hospital chain in Cleveland.

Re: Cataract Surgery
Had my last post op appt yesterday. 20-20- both eyes, but will still need reading glasses for up close reading when I set down for a good book or to adjust my TT arm. So far very impressed with my surgeon and the laser process.

Re: Cataract Surgery
Glad to see you are doing well. My son-in-law is an opthalmologist at the VA in Los Angeles (so if you are a vet in LA he may well be doing your cataract surgery.) He also is an adjunct faculty member at UCLA and trains a lot of the opthalmology residents there including doing cataract surgery. He tells me that cataract surgery is pretty routine these days with very good results. With the demographics of vets, there will be more and more need for cataract surgery.
I think of a time when what an opthalmologist routinely does today would have been considered a miracle, restoring eyesight to the blind.

Heard the Falcon LS3/5a’s at the Florida Audio Expo. Three days later UPS delivered a pair at my front door. Whatever they cost, they are worth it. Superb. IMHO, best sound at the show.
