      I had my first ever comprehensive eye exam ever about 2 weeks ago. No cataracts, but apparently I had some dysfunction, possible clogging of my Meibomian glands. I was prescribed Lotemax to use for about 6 weeks total and was also told to use an eye compress and otc eye drops for the dryness.

    I had cataract surgery just before I turned 60. I always,wore sunshades as my eyes were sensitive to the sun. I have none of the problems you,spoke so and my parents didn’t have cataracts. The Dr who did my surgery put a lens in that if I don’t have my contacts in I can read without reading glasses. No one asked me any questions concerning this but I am so glad it was done this way. Thanks

    I had cataract surgery in my 40's. One eye was seeing 3 of everything so I had no choice. Set up as monovision. No glasses and my vision has actually improved. I'm now 64 with a young person's vision. Colors are brighter. Whites are whiter. The procedure was a breeze. Don't be afraid t do it.

    I was scheduled for surgery to replace the cataract damaged lenses in both eyes. With my wife, I changed to eating a plant based diet, recommended by my DO. After a month, the osteo arthritis pain I suffered in my toes, plantar, heels, ankles, knees, elbows, wrists and fingers (each confirmed by xray images) disappeared. Almost a year after going plant based diet, my cataracts cleared in both eyes. I phoned the optometrist and requested a new vision test before my scheduled cataract surgery. She agreed. After the new exam, she cancelled the cataract surgery for my eyes! - It was a big step to give up all meat, dairy, processed foods, oils, etc. But, the rewards to me far exceed the compromises. (Age 74!)

    Thank you for your video. I’m 77 with T2 diabetes but it’s considered “well managed”. I quit smoking 26 years ago. I also have high blood pressure but have have been somewhat successful in getting it down to a reasonable if not ideal level. My ophthalmologist says I don’t need cataract surgery at this time. I enjoyed your presentation of the information as you don’t rush through it. You have a calming demeanor and I wish you could do the surgery if and when it becomes necessary! I subscribed and look forward to seeing more.

    My doctor from the Philippines told me I have cataract when I went to her clinic for my allergy check up. I didn’t mind because I felt ok. I got vision examination when I applied for Driver’s license that made me disqualified not to have DL because I did not pass my vision test. I went to the optometrist, he told me I have cataract both eyes. Due to this problem my husband told me to accompany me to go to optalmologist for check up. Thank you for sharing those things that are good for the eyes to prevent cataract.

    Thank you for this information, it helps. I saw my Opthalmologist yesterday, she told me I'm starting to get cataract but 5 or 6 months ago she told me everything was fine, no cataract, no glaucoma. Now all of a sudden I have a little tiny cataract, I've been taking Preservation Ared vitamins, fish oil, Centrum multivitamins (not everyday only if can remember to take them. I started to eat broccoli again, spinach, sometimes avocado. I will follow your advice. I'm hoping it doesn't get worse. I'm now 72. Last time I watch your video, you said Systane Ultra eye drops is good for dry eyes, so I went and bought it. Now that my eye doc said I have a little cataract, what eyedrops is good that will slow it down or reverse it. Thanks.

    I avoided cataract surgery for years, which was among the dumbest things I ever did. With the new lens, I see the smallest print on the scale. I need minimum distance correction of -1 to -1.5. The surgery was simple eye drops for a few weeks. Don't put it off.
