Cataract surgery time again

Post by Flea »

Had the left eye done in 2009, now it's time for the right. Scheduled for May 24. This should be fun to navigate without health insurance. And simply because so many peoples are freaked out by eyeball things - enjoy!

Now it's dark.

Well, at least you'll have a good excuse for wearing those really dark sunglasses inside bars and stuff.

You realize your humor becomes more cornea if you try to force it. At least that's the lens I view it through. So put a lid on it before someone lashes out or browbeats you.

If you watch closely, ewe will realize it's likely a dead sheep with a shaved area around the eye. Still pretty cool for 1929.

Hope it all went well.
Seems like I seen a short movie or part of one where someone gets their eye sliced right before Bowie came on stage back in the mid to late 70's. There was also a hand in a box on a bicycle. Any ideas wwcd?
and the rest as they say is uh er uh, well somebodies history somewhere?

You excel at this aqueous humor.- may I become your pupil? Iris to be as funny as you, hopefully this request doesn't strike a nerve

Strike a nerve? Not at all, I just worry that, with the optics, you will make a spectacle of yourself. In any event, I'm totally blindsided by how scleratic this discussion is becoming.

It really is. I was going to chime in myself, but that one is so good, I can't come up with one good enough to follow it and still retina belief that I'm funny.

I understand that my ophthalmologist plays punk rock in his OR. Particularly the Sex Pistols. He's apparently a big fan of Johnny Retina & Sid Vitreous.

Good luck! That thing where you could swear that the nurse is coming on to you? That's just the drugs talking. Sorry, dude.
