No one has more "white coat" fever than I do...trust me.

In order:

- JavaB, the risk is as low as can be for most medical procedures. I had some of your issues and got the most egregious left eye done first, settled in and then waited on the right eye until I was sure the left was good to go.

I know: like I know, right? I was concerned and that is my, our, prerogative.

- Alan, my left eye was occluded because I waited far too long. The sign for me was lack of clarity forward and a falling amount of peripheral vision. I waited because of "white coat" syndrome.

As soon has my right eye began to cloud, off I went for dash two cataract surgery.

My preference was for the same artificial lens for both eyes...wanted distance clarity.

There are some excellent videos concerning the procedure but I recommend:

Thanks Paul. I still not convinced but your post took me closer. Just discussing eye issues make my eyes shutdown HAHA.
