Baeen getting shots for 3 years. Now cataracts in both eyes. Will have cat surgery on both eyes next week. I will be corrected for distance in both eyes so will still need readers.

Hi
. I don't have experience with macular degeneration and cataract surgery, but many in this community have had cataract surgery. Hopefully, some with chime in and share their experiences. While you wait, I thought I would share this article with you: https://maculardegeneration.net/clinical/cataract-surgery. Here is a recent forum post about cataract surgery as well: https://maculardegeneration.net/forums/myopic-macular-degeneration#reply-256168
