Guest guest Posted November 11, 2006 Report Share Posted November 11, 2006 I have worn glasses for many years and I never lost them as I see people doing. The reasons was that I always had them on. At this stage in life I loose things even things I am holding in my hand. I get very frustrated with that. 2 months ago I had catarac surgery on one eye and I've had problems ever since then. I have a pair of the magnifying glases, reading glasses. The catarac in the other eye is to be removed next week. I hope things will be better after this. My question is how have you solved that problem. If I have reading glasses I will probably loses them about ever 10 seconds and I don't like the idea of having to find my them every time I want to see something close. My cataracts have been bad enough that I had very little vision so will be glad when the other eye is done. What can you do other than having reading glasses from Wally world? The eye glasses where I am having the surgery done has reading glasses so they must be better than the ones I have. I have considered having bifocals so I could always were them instead of hunting them. Or I wonder if I could get a pair that is such that I can wear them all the time. Do any of you have a different solution? I hate to even think about how often I would be looking for them. I have a string around my neck on the ones that I am using. The doctor made a passing comment that I will pursue after the other catarac is done. He said that I have weird eyes and I still may need glasses. If that is the case the problem would be solved. Earlier he had said I may need contact lenses. The problem I have is stigmatism. Betty Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
