She did my right eye first with the left eye scheduled for tomorrow, Wednesday 10 Oct. I now have a brand new eye with multifocal lens; and it's great. My vision is certainly much better with the right eye - I am writing this post without specs. And it'd be much better when the left eye is done. |
| So next week I should be a new guy walking about without specs, except for powerless sunglasses. I could have it done at our Military Hospital and being a pensioner, pay nothing, but my dear wife was willing to foot the bill. Furthermore Dato Dr Baljit had all my records. | |
On this note, I can't help but remember how my father had cataract back in the mid 1950's but he refused to go for operation for several reasons: firstly, he couldn't afford it, secondly he was a great believer in takdir or God's will and thirdly he didn't quite like hospitals. So for almost 20 years until his death in March 1975, he endured blindness.
I don't blame him considering that the technology back then must have been quite primitive compared to nowadays, where we have laser and ultrasound techniques, local anesthetics and very modern OT facilities.
