The procedure was painless and minimal.
I had them leave my eye focus the way it had been all my life. I don’t 
know if that was the best choice, but I was 60 when I had it done and I 
didn’t feel like learning new habits.

My ophthalmologist says I will probably need a YAG laser posterior 
capsulotomy soon (5 minutes without anesthesia). It is now 16 years 
since the cataract surgery and something needs adjusting. My world has 
been full of lighted magnifying glasses for a long time, but I find that 
I use them more now than I once did.
