    The music is there to make it feel not so scary. Surgery can be scary for many people, they're trying to put it into a light-hearted and informational format.

    I just completed the surgery on May 18. Got clearance from my doctor yesterday for normal activities. My vision is very good now. My advice to anyone contemplating is to follow your doctor's instructions. The surgery itself is pretty easy, but do what they tell you post-op for best result. This is a great video with good information. Thank you, doctor!

    I had cataract surgery at Mass Eye & Ear Infirmary in Boston about a week ago. When they took the eye patch off the following morning I had excellent vision. I didn't even need new glasses. The vision in the eye measured at 20/25. The eye surgeon told me that an outcome like that is rare as most people at least need new glasses. I guess I was just lucky and everything fell together just right.

    After my cataract I could hardly see anything. It was like a thick fog. Literally I could not distinguish between the house at the bottom of my garden and the sky. I was so worried I went to the eye emergency clinic 2 days after. The guy said there was a bit of the lens left in but that could be lasered out later. After 4 weeks little improvement. At 4 week checkup the specialist told me to stop using the steroid drops they gave to me as the pressure was high. He then gave me gkaucoma drops. Within 24 hours my sight recovered! Such a relief, I thought I would be blind! Now its ok with no drops.

They actually put the medication in your eye when they are doing the surgery, afterwards you will see slight movement in your eye, that’s the medication, your body will absorb it after 1 or 2 weeks. If someone else were looking into your eye, they would not see the medication in your eye, it’s only noticeable to you.

    In the initial period after cataract surgery, the lens could possibly get de-centred or displaced, or even fall out of the capsular bag in which it is placed, (which is open in front); for this reason those precautions are advised during the initial post op weeks.

    Brilliant advice - the process reminds me of the the recovery period post LASIK procedure - the eye drops prescribed proved problematic as I had an allergic reaction to the preservative - only by scouring abstracts on University sites did I determine what the problem was and sourced a preservative free alternative. These eye drops came in single use phials. I shall be progressing down the path of cataract surgery and knowledge is key in what to anticipate before/after surgery and potential complications.
