Nana's Pre Op

Nana had her pre operation appointment today at the Opthamologist office. She has a servere cataract in her left eye where she is totally blind from it and a "partial" (but still growing) cataract in her right eye. The good news is that cataract is curable with surgery. With that in mind, Nana will have her eye surgery next Thursday, September 18th - please pray for a successful surgery and pain-free recovery !! The prognosis with this kind of surgery is great - she may not have to wear glasses !! I can't imagine my mother not wearing glasses !!!!



Nana getting her blood pressure checked.

Nana getting her cataract and eyes measured.

Nana getting an ultrasound on her eye -- testing the pressure behind her eye.

And then we ended this visit by watching a brief video of what to expect on the day of surgery.
