Going under the knife of. . . . . dooooom

Not really. But am getting cataract surgery done next week. Apparently that filmy smear across my left eye is NOT cream cheese.

Wife and I are actually spending the night at a fancy-pantsy hotel the night before then I go under the knife the following morning.

Anyone else ever get a lens replacement? My insurance refuses to cover a laser beam implant so that sucks, but other than that, am looking forward to reading again and not having everything on the computer "super-sized".

I understand that that pretty much have this procedure down pat.

I'm sure you'll enjoy the restoration greatly, especially if you've gotten used to the 'smear'.

Rest easy, good luck and enjoy the hotel.

I already feel sorry for your wife.


Recently, I was tinkering around in the garage with an electric motor. I was trying to remove one of the clips and stabbed myself in the hand.

I came in bleeding and my wife was concerned and aided me in cleaning it and wrapping it up.

She asks, "are you alright?"

I said no, I now know what its live to give birth...to twins.


She doesn't want to help anymore.

OMG that makes me wince.

I would have tried the dissolving eye drops personally, but I am a medical procedure wuss.

Good luck to you. But you should do the hotel bit once again after you can See Her better.

Twilight is fun. Also if you think of it, try not to get to to gorked on pain meds and come here to ATS. Actually that might be funny.

Those old playboys are gonna look new again.

Good luck, give Gunther a kick.

No, they don't.

Another story.

Got a metal sliver a few months back.

Had to have it drilled out. Yes, drilled out of my eyeball.

I left a list of passwords, usernames and account numbers right after clearing my search history.

She laughed and almost dropped the laundry basket while slipping on the dishwater that had spilled onto the floor.

I was hurt. I have no one to share this pain with.

I feel ya buddy.

I'm going to be a pirate next week.

The bride was not amused when I screamed for rum after the surgery.

Probably because you didn't have the hat.

You should know by now that if you want the booty, you need the damn hat!

Was told it was easier than a dental visit, easier than a dental visit, a dental visit is hell on earth
In my prayers

Looking forward to you posting a picture of yourself post-op

See, here is the deal.

There is a proven cataract eyedrop but the FDA is never going to approve it and undercut eye surgeons in my humble opinion. Google: Lanosterol

2015:

Scientists Have Developed an Eye Drop That Can Dissolve Cataracts

www.sciencealert.com...

www.science.org...

We can't get it but your pets can.... LOL

Search lanosterol on amazon.......

Oh, disclaimer, I would never recommend pet medicines or antibiotics.

In most cases the eye drops will not work .

My dad had eye surgery after wearing bifocals his whole life. He doesnt need to wear glasses anymore. I dont remember what surgery he had, but it worked. He still drives around at 96, no problem
