    I had been wanting cataract surgery for a while, since my vision had gotten to the point that it was uncorrectable with glasses. The process was actually really smooth.I got the LAL lenses so we could more precisely correct my vision.PREP: It was a pain to go a month without my contacts (as I couldnt see 20/20), but necessary to be sure the measurements were precise.SURGERY: On the day of, they walked me through every step of the surgery (I had both eyes done a week apart.) My husband drove me and each time I was in and out within 2 hours.RECOVERY: My first eye had some itching for more than 2 weeks. (I did not have that with my second eye.) I was nervous that I would always feel like I had an eyelash in my eye. But the doctors assured me that this sometimes happens and indeed after 3 weeks, both eyes felt completely normal.I used the eye shield for a week to protect my eye while I slept. And I couldnt exercise - and especially swim - for 2 weeks.THE GLASSES: The UV Blocking glasses were not uncomfortable and once the sun went down I didnt need them. It meant I couldnt swim with my head underwater until nightfall, but other than that they did not hinder any of my activities (I ran and played tennis wearing them).THE LIGHT ADJUSTMENTS: These felt a bit weird, as you have to keep your eye open while bright light is shown - for up to 2 minutes. For me the toughest part was waiting to have my eyes dilate. Despite my blue sensitive eyes, each office visit I needed lots of drops and over 90 minutes to dilate. Once my eyes were ready, the adjustments were so quick! Be sure to have someone drive you home (I took the T and with the dark glasses it was ok. And once or twice the tech gave me some anti dilate drops. (Not sure if those are always available. Ask though!)CURRENT: It has been over 6 months and I still cannot believe I can see the clock in the middle of the night. My eyes feel perfectly normal. Occasionally after a long day my eyes get tired and dry similar to when I was wearing contacts. But then it was every day. Now it is just occasionally. And seasonal allergies no longer affect my eyes as much.Currently I occasionally wear readers and I use long distance glasses for driving at night. (And for seeing the hockey puck at Bruins games - first time EVER!)

    Felt my visit was very thorough. No time wasted. Any questions asked were answered thoroughly, no feeling of being imposed upon. Very welcoming and friendly. Something is about how we receive and perceive. The world doesnt cater to us. Anyone can have an off moment or day... how often we as the public expect those that assist us to be mind readers and/ or to tolerate our often not very kind attitude with a smile and its still not enough...oooh the entitled who are not entitled per se. We are all allowed measures of simple human kindness. At Boston Vision in Brookline yesterday I was thrilled and proud to have experienced this and more!

    The staff at Boston Vision shows excellent care for the patients. Prepping the patient so they would be ready to see the doctor, and ask questions if necessary. I had a great checkup appointment .
