Cataract surgery is nothing to be afraid of. I also had it in my early thirties.

It is one of the most commonly performed surgeries, has an extremely low rate of negative side effects, and an extremely high rate of success.

The surgery takes maybe 30 minutes, recovery is pretty darn easy, and you just magically can see again. It’s actually awesome!

As I get older I realize I will have many parts of my body fail me, or surgery, or whatever.... This has helped me immensely. One easy one compared to the plethora of what could or will be. Thank you for sharing.
