The years just seem to go by real quickly now since I came into my mid sixties. Ive been having difficulties with health related things from high blood pressure to a triple CABG about 14 years ago. Diabetes, obesity and a myriad of other conditions that I just chalk up to getting older and a sedate lifestyle that was caused by a service connected back injury. Just in the past year I learned I have cataracts and glaucoma. I learned by the retinal scans that the right eye has one directly in front of the macula and the left eye has it leaving spots all over the retina subsequently I have been looking through glare and a yellow haze for the past year.
Cataract surgery is very common and I have known people that have had it and have vastly improved sight. Today I learned that I'll be getting mine done soon and I am kinda of excited about the whole ordeal. I don't know how much it will improve my sight but any kind of improvement is is 100%.
In retrospect I will not be doing any plastic therapy for a couple of weeks after but when it heals I will be just a excited as having a new kit.
It was bound to happen sooner or later

Hope your surgery goes well and you back to building even better in a couple months.
Thanks,

Best wishes!
To make each build less crappy than the last one. Or, put another way, "Better than the last one, not as good as the next one!"..

Good luck!
March as one, Don't look back
Odin's sons... Attack!
Unleash hell! Do not repent! Warfare grants us no lament
Let your weapons slash and tear This is no place for fear
Hold the lines! Move as one! In unity our victory's won
Our shields will form a mighty wall
United we shall never fall

Good luck Paul, I have also some close relatives that went through the operation and they are very happy afterwards!
