Today was the cataract guy. He was thorough. I got referred to a corneal scarring specialist at Stanford to go to after all this; he says some of the bright scattered reflection problem is from that, and that it can be fixed, too.
So: a multifocal lens, or what by the sound of it is a new improved multifocal with fewer problems at night, or monofocal, and if the latter, for distance, mid, or near, with glasses for the rest?
Multifocal+ sounded good to me!
Richard cautioned that a friend of his greatly regretted making that choice. His own prescription is quite mild, so he went for mid on his so he could spend his work time and grandkid time without having to worry about glasses.
Me, I’ve worn glasses for distance since third grade and just assumed that’s what I would choose. But maybe not?
I’d love to hear anyone’s input, because I have zero experience with this.
Meantime, the person who was supposed to call back to schedule the surgery didn’t, and doctor #2 didn’t seem to be in a hurry about it, and I’m okay with that right now.
The important thing is, it’s going to happen.
Meantime, when I changed Richard’s dressing his foot looked way better. I feel like I can finally breathe easy on that one.
