The eyes have it!

My cataract surgery was done on Tuesday, March 1, 2011. I could see after the operation.

I can see really, really well. I still need glasses to read and I need to have a new prescription as my vision now is different then when I had my glasses made a few months ago, but the tradeoff is worth it!
Surgery Tuesday, Lay around Wed., Went to the office, grocery and to see a friend in rehab at a care facility, laundry, ironing and breakfast making.

A good day with many more to come.
Thank you Dr. Chi!
