No, the verdict is in - you've been on Usenet for over 3 decades.
You're now in your mid 60s. But you see that light at the end of the
tunnel? Just a cataract.


Actually,.,.I was just diagnosed with cataracts. Very very minor at
this point, but the doc told me to wear UV blocking sunglasses
whenever I was outside. I asked him what the prognosis was..he
shrugged..said who knows? But its a safe and fast operation to
remove them and repair the eye.

I mentioned this a few weeks ago here and asked questions of other
members here.

I must have missed that. I had cataract operations in both eyes a
couple of years ago. Dr. said "you don't need glasses anymore." And
he's right -- except for reading.

Fast, painless; you don't even know it happened. The oddest thing was
that it changed *colors*. Everything was yellowish before. Of course,
you don't notice it while it's happening. But they do one eye at a
time, and you sure as hell notice it when one eye has been done and
before the second one is done.

The world is bluer now and a lot brighter.
So far I've had one eye done and everything got whiter, brighter and
more vivid, then everything got sidetracked by a triple bypass
including delays from a bad virus lung infection then a need to
re-wire the sternum. now I'm back in line for the other eye.

Holy cow, Gerry, you've really been through some hell. I hope
everything is working out well.

When you get the cataract operation in the second eye, it will be a
good mood-booster.
Things are going well here, second son lives with us and Junior is
close by so no lack of help if needed plus SWMBO has had lots of
experience managing things on her own since most of my working life
was away from home, supervising projects across Ontario.
