About 4years ago on a regular eye health check up my Optician informed me I had cataracts developing in both eyes. At that time I could not notice little or no issues so life continued as normal. :up:
Early this year after noticing changes to my vision I had another check-up this time after tests & consultation he referred me to an optical surgeon.
This took about 4 months to occur & in the last 4 to 6 weeks my vision has rapidly got worse. :n: Competition which is at night was initially reasonable but now that is becoming a bit hit & miss. :headbang: Sometime during practise, which takes place in the morning, with the glare it’s quite ordinary yet at other times impressive. :clap:
Interestingly I have learnt to cope not losing too many games because of it, I think it’s because you have the techniques it’s a bit instinctive. |(
Good news I finally got in to see her & my operation to remove the first one is in 2 weeks time, when it occurs I will report on how the changes affect me. :^)

Good luck Gollum. My Mum had cataracts removed a few years ago and never looked back (oops, excuse the pun :lol: ). Then again she also beat cancer, so I think she's pretty tough! ;)

Good luck Gollum. If TT being hit and miss is a symptom of cataracts, I may have had them from birth!

You're right "Rokphish2" the anaesthetist gave me a black eye while preparing me for the procedure which set my recovery back a little so its still a little blurry. thanks for asking "Rokphish2 & Haggisv. :up: 8)

Day 8 after the operation & my recovery has been a little weird it was like I had 2 eyes that both could see but didn't recognise each other. :^) Then day 9 I woke up & the brain had worked it out they were working together as one so now on to getting the second one done on the 13th Dec. :?:
Had my first TT hit up 2 days ago which was definitely a little weird, :| different but okay & at the time I thought don't panic it's what it is it can only get better..... :sweat: so I'm out there again tomorrow & we will see! |(
