| Cataracts Hi everyone, I posted a message about cataracts in the wrong place. Now I am starting a new thread. Does anyone out there have any experience with cataract surgery. I am having the surgery in my left eye on May 26th. I was told that being a long term (39 years) diabetic that things may happen. There could be macular swelling or fluid leakage. I had retinopathy with laser treatments over 10 years ago and have been stable ever since. However, there is a chance that the retinopathy could reappear. It is scary. My vision is still O.K. but there is a sort of haze (as if I could not totally clean the window) that never leaves. Fortunately, I have heard many success stories with this but still feel scared. Any input would be greatly appreciated. Thank you. |
