Cool

Thank you Loose Rivets for your sincere reply.

I was thinking the same thing too about buying some time before the opperation.

Only problem with leaving a partially ruptured lens capsule is, It has more chance of getting cloudier than actually recovering. According to Doc a torn capsule do not recover instead it worsen in time.

I don't understand why the Doc was not very interested about puting a capsule ring with a new lens. This is being done about 20% of cataract sergury anyway, specially with the elderly people who has very soft lens capsule which tends to rupture during the cataract opperation. I am 29.

Doc said different doc will have different opinion about the capsule ring. But he has 30 years of surgery experience in London Moorfields Eye hospital.

I certainly don't like the idea of having a loose contact lens in one of my eye for life. But that's what the Doc think is best for me !

I really don't know what to do!
