I hear you, Tim. At 66 years old, I am starting to see my hopes for Olympic gymnastics gold slip away. But seriously, my physical capabilities have always been fairly high. My body did whatever I asked. But it is starting to let me down. I will spare the details.

Thanks Jeff. I was going to offer the same URL. Your write made me WANT to have the procedure.

Tim, the surgery involves a simple, small slit cut into the white of your eye. They suck the old lens out and then roll the new one up like a piece of paper and slip it in. See Jeff's write up (10 minutes). Also, it appears they can fix many other vision imperfections at the same time.
