JohnL Posted February 1, 2023 Author Report Share Posted February 1, 2023 Marybeth and Joan thanks for that information. I had no idea about the water issue and now will check with the doctor. He knows I have a CI but never mentioned the water issue. Mary Beth 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lynda Posted March 19, 2023 Report Share Posted March 19, 2023 I had cornea surgery last month on both eyes. The day after tomorrow I have a follow up appointment to discuss upcoming cataract surgeries. Please explain the usage of water during the cataract surgeries, and any questions that I should ask during the appointment. I wear two Sonnet 2s. Thanks very much. @JohnLgood luck with your surgery.

JohnL Posted March 19, 2023 Author Report Share Posted March 19, 2023 I must admit I don’t know how the water was used because the anesthesia they give makes you able to hear instructions but you forget what happened! I told my ophthalmologist that I wore a CI and all the nurses that were attending. They said not to worry. I also wore a water wear on my sonnet just to be sure. I had no issue whatsoever. Good luck with your surgery Mary Beth and Lynda 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
