Cataract Surgery- eye one

It went well. I can see well enough to be on the computer but with reading glasses. Butch's reading glasses are 1.75 and mine will be 2.50 so we will not be sharing as we thought we might be. I am currently using some 2.00 and they are adequate but barely. 

Cataract surgery has either changed drastically in the past year and half or my vision situation is a world away from what Butch's was. I have no lifting restrictions. I do not have an eyepatch to wear at night. I have no bending restrictions. I am supposed to stay away from dust and dusty places for 3 days but other than that  I am good to go. I had the surgery at 10:00 A M and it is now 2:30 and I am on the computer...done the puzzles and read email. Yeah, I have to work at it a bit more than I would have yesterday but that is okay. It will only get better. The second eye is getting done a week from tomorrow. I am much less anxious after having the first one done.
