You’re welcome. There was a thread here a few weeks before I had my surgery. One Freeper commented that if during the surgery, he saw that needle coming toward him, he’d jump up and run away. Someone who’d already had the surgery said not to worry, because they give you an IV to relax you to the point where you don’t even care what they’re doing. And they were right.
I just had my first cataract surgery last Wednesday. Like you said, between the bright light and sedation you have no clue what is going on.
The difference is astounding. I can’t wait for the other surgery to be done. 3 hours after the procedure I was able to read white background websites again without reading glasses.
