After retiring, I had the cataract lens replacement surgery. Best thing ever! Truly life changing not having to carry a spare pair and constantly cleaning or losing the active pair. Now I have 6/6 vision without specs.

Weirdly, dear old CASA attaches a caveat to my Class 2 medical - no night flying and no IFR. After 3 years, it still makes no sense to me. I can see better without glasses now. Plus no more tangled up specs in the O2 mask when doing rapid decompression/emergency descent drills in the sim.

Were it not for that caveat by CASA, I’d strongly recommend getting the surgery done.
