Final eye exam from the two surgeries today, and all ok.

Because I didn’t opt to have the fancier lens implants, I just have good lenses, but need reading glasses with an astigmatism correction. Which are now on order. Glass lenses. Extra weight, yes, but they clean up so nice. My optometrist is the only place in town that grinds their own lenses, so they can do glass, and have it within a week.


We tried one of those TENS units that uses electric pads to make muscle contract as a treatment for sciatic pain—I read all the ads and reviews for various pills and nostrums and then read WebMD, which said that TENS devices work, not so much the other things. Well, we got one, and it does help. Unfortunately, it refused to recharge. So back it goes to Amazon and we ordered another one.


I am also—gasp—ordering a bedspread set, inspired by the fact the room now has a very nice floor.


If we can just get through the next week or so with jury duty, we are going to get the living room floor to match and quit living on plywood among boxes, of evenings.

Jim Mcclanahan You should be good with reading glasses. My own recent cataract surgery left me with one eye okay for distance and one okay for close up. I can drive & read if I have to without further correction. But I also now have a pair of Varilux glasses that I can wear all the time and do everything with. The bonus is a pair of reading glasses (that Medicare paid for). My overall vision hasn't been so good in decades. I'm sure you'll be great as you get used to the changes.
