Ahhhh yes glasses the joy of spending all your money on things you sit on and break

Can they do anything for the cateract?
I tend to have to wear tinted sunglasses ( ho hum we won't go there shall we ) now myself .. They make a huge diff for me though
And I bet ya my phone is worse than your phone lol0 -
Commiserations on the cataract - I had eye surgery a few months ago for a torn retina, and it involved some oil being left behind my eye to help the healing process. This means a further op under local anaesthetic to remove the oil, but it causes a cataract to form which needs sorting out at the same time. So, I have one good eye and one progressively-more-blurry eye at present, and am waiting for my operation date which should be during the next few weeks. Can't wait, I hate looking at things in a lopsided sort of way!One life - your life - live it!0
