Today is prep day.
(Ya, know getting food prepped, and other stuff I might not want to do for a few days.)
For cataract surgery Thursday morning.
I will have both eyes done, standard lenses.
Then 3 weeks till I get new glasses.
So I am going to have to cut way done on screen time.
I am so looking forward to this. I waited too long.
If I disappear from here it is just me resting my new eyes.
"In-between"
There are a few Lens choices.
Standard is much, much cheaper.
If you wear glasses now you will have to after.
Any of the expensive lenses will NOT completely fix your eyesight. They will help. But not fix. If you are older. I would stick with the standard, and fix eyesight with glasses.
Note, they will try hard to upsell you on fancy lenses because they make a lot of money.
Tell your friend to be aware of this.
Oh, I think she may be getting down-sold though, by her providers.
She is in Austria where they do have national health care, as well as private insurance.
What really caught my eye was the type that corrects astigmatism, as that is one of her issues.
ok.
understood.
Completely different situation.
And I don't know enough to have an opinion.
You triggered awareness of some interesting options though, so thanks for sharing :)
