I had a cataract removed last tuesday, and it was not a piece of cake.

Mine was considered severe, so the longer you go, the more it takes to get rid of it.

Good luck.

Our late, greatly missed Golden Retriever, Prior Lake Jake, developed a cataract when he was about four years old. Our vet informed us there was a dog opthamologist (in Edina, naturally.)

The doctor informed us that he could do surgery for $890 and we went ahead.

Jake came home a little woozy with a lamp shade around his neck but recovered completely and lived a long happy life in Prior Lake, MN.

You don’t need to wish me good luck - I’m not having the operation. I never said it “was a piece of cake.” But I’ll stick with my personal experiences - which are all positive - and not try to worry a fellow freeper.
