Is there a way to find out if this has been done?
Ouch! John I hope all is gong well!

I went in today for detailed exam for my left eye. Cataracts, no other damage, everything is healthy. I am 64. He had the eye mapped, dilated and pixelated...he gave a whole new meaning to, "look into my eyes..."

I remembered this thread and I am so glad I revisited.

I though about going local but I will go to the Wilmer Institute at Johns Hopkins to get the work done...they are the best on the East Coast. They did my son's eye surgery.
