The pre-op chair turns into the operating chair, which turns into the post op chair and then your home. What a cinch. And... you are looking at the biggest chicken in the world, so take it from me, its great.
As someone else said, the post-op drops were the biggest pain, but its nothing compared to other stuff we have to endure as old people... LOL.
You will be so happy you had it done. Good luck.

Kathie, do you know if having the astigmatism fixed is a separate surgery and is it covered by Medicare and secondary insurance?
thanks, Rose
