Also, I have a very bad astigmatism in one eye, and when looking through that eye (alone), it looks like Chinese writing. Do you know if they do something to fix the astigmatism before doing the cataract surgery?
Best of luck to you Gracie Girl. I'm sure it will turn out perfect!!!

I see Dr. Jodie Armstrong at Ocala Eye. Office across from Laurel Manor. The staff is very good at telling you what to expect and Dr. Armstrong is very reassuring, very bright and kind.
I also saw their Retina specialist and Dr. Sami a neuro opthamologist from Gainesville. My eyes tested well for vision but things still LOOKED blurry and my cataracts weren't "ripe". He said that removing them would most likely solve the blurriness. I have not driven the car for several months out of an abundance of caution. No one directed me not to.
I will be glad to drive again and also see the details better for my paintings. Thank you for sharing this information, everyone. I hope it will reassure everyone with this in their future.
