Secondary Cataract

Today I drove down to my doctor's office and got what they call secondary cataract treatment. I had cataract surgery last year and my vision has been 20:20 since that day. Last time I went for a checkup my doctor told me I would need to have an additional procedure. They use a laser beam. The procedure was really easy (for me). A few drops in my eyes, answering a few question, and sitting still for about two minutes was all that was required of me. The nurse and doctor did the rest. There was no pain and little discomfort, just a little blurry vision for a couple of hours. I drove home by myself. I am thankful for modern medicine and good doctors.
