But for medical stuff I think it makes sense for me to stay close to home for follow ups and such. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrianK Posted 6 hours ago Author Report Share Posted 6 hours ago Update... I saw the eye Dr who can do the UV light adjusting replacement lens. 1 of 2 in the state. I'm not a candidate. The eye needs to dilate to at least 7.2mm. My eyes dilate to 6mm. But all isn't lost. My left eye will do fine with an ordinary replacement lens. The astigmatism in my right eye can be fixed with a Toric (was that the word used?) lens. And they'll cost quite a bit less. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Go in with a positive outlook for the better vision and you will adapt fine to your new vision after surgery. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
