I can't believe all the great artwork you do and you had cataracts. I understand they remove your lens and replace it with a man made one. Good luck Springer, keep up the good work.
Tell me more, much more. In winter of last year I started having trouble focusing on the road on the way to work and peoples headlights were way too strong. I thought it was the fog smoke stained windshield. Spring came and I started squinting at my laptop at work in the mornings. I thought my prescription was changing again. I wear progressives as a way of compensating for my lenses losing their elasticity. So, I thought, changing again. In summer, one night coming back from a callout at the station I was approaching the clover leaf and lights had these beautiful halos on them. It was gorgeous. One night out in the backyard I looked up at the moon and could see one moon with my left eye and three with my right. Gotta see the eye doctor soon. Then I got a job up north and it became imperative to get new glasses. At the eye doctors a week before leaving I went for an eye exam and instead got all of these other tests I'd never had before. Then I got the news that I had cataracts. I'm fifty. I got a referral to a surgeon and was told the waiting list was a year long. That was nine months ago.

Welcome to the club of thousands maybe millions of us baby-boomers who have had the surgery.
