I am an insulin-dependent diabetic and I need an extremely good surgeon to do
Cataract surgery. I would love to hear from anyone who has had their cataracts removed successfully. Thanks for your help.

Go with either Ocala Eye on 466 and Buena Vista OR Mid-Florida Eye on 441 in Summerfield out past WalMart. Both have excellant doctors!!

unless your cataracts are so bad you MUST replace them, I would delay as long as possible with corrective glasses.

It is an option, for some of us. My eye doctor has been telling me for the past 4 years that my one eye is to a point where it "qualifies" to be paid for by medicare. I do not subscribe to having it done for that reason. If the condition is correctable with glasses, that is what I do.

I am not a good patient. I dislike being medicated and do everything in my personal power to minimize meds. And as for being cut upon I have a very simple rule....only if the condition/situation is life threatening!!!!!!!!!!!!
