[QUOTE="EllieM, post: 2467184, member: 372717"] Yes, I've had the cataract for a while (5 years?) but I just wasn't expecting anyone to want to treat it till I was practically blind :). I'm pretty relaxed about the concept that many people get cataracts as they get older. Just surprised that I might get pushed forward in the cataract treatment queue so that they can monitor my eyesight, rather than than because I can't see through it. I've had on again off again background retinopathy for decades without anyone wanting to treat it so I'm not worried.:) [/QUOTE]
