  1. Yes! Congenital cataracts runs in my family. My sister and I were born with it, my mum before us, my grandfather before her and his mother before him.

     

    It's a bit of a story but in a nutshell:

     

    Mum and sister had implants but this was years ago. They were under general anaesthetic.

     

    Due to complications, I have only had the right one done, just last year. And yes, I was conscious throughout. You can't really see much. There's a really bright light shining on your face and they kept putting various drops in your eye so you get these weird visual effects like something out of a sixties music video.

     

    I was there for about a hour because they had to do extra stuff. Your operation will be about 20 minutes.

     

    I hope it goes well for you. :hug2:
