All is Good on Stauffer
A bit warmer than the past few days, but sill doable.
I will have a spell of personal endurance. Today was my one month checkup after right eye cataract surgery. I was excited to get a new prescription and the order for the new lens would be off and running. Not so today.
In the beginning of June my left eye with corrective lens was testing at 20/20 while the right eye that was diagnosed as needing surgery with corrective lens was at 20/60. Well, well! Today the left eye with lens tested out at 20/30. A significant decline in three months. Next Tuesday I will be seeing my eye specialist to see if it would not be prudent to do the cataract that is on the left eye. In June there was a speck of a cataract, much different today.
Dennis and I had talked about it before I left for my appointment. If it is to be, I will do the left eye as soon as possible. I have adapted to a degree with each eye with a different focus. Why spend the money on the new lens for both eyes when in six months, it would need to be addressed. By the way . . . lenses do run in the the mid $400s to a high as $500. New frames could push it well over the $500. Now, our wonderful insurance is great but it does not cover anything beyond the six month eye checkup for vision.
Hey folks! I can handle this as I know it is temporary. No so for some of my friends with more serious life-long situations.
On a lighter note . . . tomorrow Dennis will have the mower for his Cub-Lo-Boy put back on the tractor. The blades have been sharpened and with the new paint and decal job, it’s been give an extended life.
Life is good on Stauffer Avenue.
