Well, I have a Cateract...
Holy crap, what egyptian tomb did I disturb to get this run of shitty luck!? It is small, but it will still have to be removed of course. It is only in one eye, thank god, but I feel like a 90 year old woman when I am only in my 20's.

1. That stinks. SOrry to hear it.... but......
Just be thankful of today's technology. They can fix it. Years ago, they would give you an eyepatch. Just saying.

Good luck with the surgery. Best wishes.

2. Nothing to it
Had cataract surgery on both eyes in 97. No problem-went real easy.

3. I had cataract surgery in both eyes (one at a time of course)
and now see better than ever. I was in my early 40's when diagnosed. I hope your surgery goes as well as mine did.

4. Cataract surgery is like a walk in the park
just wait and see. *get it?* see?

seriously you'll come out and go: when can I get my other eye done? Lifetime of better vision, plus the IOL's they use nowadays all have UV protection.

Its all good
