Hello Dick
I can only tell you about my Mother who, at 84 years, had laser removal of
cataracts in both eyes. She told me there was a mild stinging from fluid
put into the eyes as anesthetic, then a red light and it was done. It took
several days for her eyes to feel normal again but now sees clearly much
better than before and does not need her glasses now, even for driving!
They did not do both of her eyes at the same time but with a couple of
months between operations which she describes as straight forward and
nothing to be worried about.
I hope this helps.
73 - Mel, G4WYW
