[QUOTE="Pinkorchid, post: 872311, member: 166283"] .The surgeon who did my cataracts said it is not just a problem in older people he said they are now doing far more cataract removals on people in their 40's than ever before. Some clinics may think they are more of a priority that older people but that certainly was not the case where I went plenty of very elderly people have it done Reading the messages here I feel I was very lucky when I had mine done my sight was not really very bad just getting a bit blurred but my optician said there was no point in giving me stronger lenses as they would not make much difference because of the cataracts I had. Had the first one done.. the worst eye.. and when I went back for the check up I was asked if I would like to have the second eye done so of course I said yes. [/QUOTE]
