The receptionist was very helpful and polite. And she must have been in a good mood because she was smiling the whole time. Dr. Vanden Bosch was very nice & explained everything to me. He will be doing my left eye first in about 2 wks I'm scared but excited. I hope this will make me see better cuz I'm tired of the blurriness. Right eye is done. I can see better. I still have to wear glasses. Eyes lot better than what they were. My regular eye Dr. in Sisseton said I can get another pair of glasses 🤓. Hooray!!! It's nice to be able to see again. I'm upset that Dr. Vanden Bosch is leaving Sanford in Sioux Falls. I'm sure everyone will miss him. I'm glad that I got both of my eyes done.

I have severe cataracts and they are getting worse. I was very impressed by the friendliness and professionalism of the staff. On Thursday, I'm having surgery on my right eye! I'll try and give you updates! ########UPDATE####### I had the surgery on both eyes two weeks apart. I still have to go back for an eye exam, because i will still have to wear glasses for close up. For the first time in 66 years, I CAN SEE! (At a distance. Up close, i am using Dollar Tree glases. I bought about 7 or 8 pairs, so i have them all over the house! But. I can see to DRIVE. I was in Walmart and i was amazed that i could actually read what was on each aisle. When your vision is 20/200 in each eye, even with glasses, its difficult to see much. There was no pain, more intense itching than anything. They occasionally blur, but I'm ashamed to admit it, but i havent been back for my second follow-up. If you need it done, don't put it off. I did for almost 2 years. Why? I have no idea. Dr. Ollerton is great!

Well, ladies and gentlemen, friends and neighbors, i had cataract surgery on both eyes! I have worn glasses for almost 60 years. Do you know how it feels to go to Dollar Tree and pick out all the regular old sunglasses i want? I. CAN. SEE. It really hit hone when i was at Walmart. I looked up at tge sign that says whats on that aisle, and i can read it!I can drive down the highway or through Sioux Falls, and can read the signs! (I still cant type). If you are contemplating getting it done, dont hesitate! I put it off for TWO years! Call Dr. Ollerton or one of the fantastic doctors, and get your sight together! Maybe I'll SEE you there! 😍😍😍
