Early morning hours starting Mr's eye prep with drops before cataract surgery. He's decided to do the 'corrective lens' replacement that the eye Dr recommended.
No food or liquids since midnight but still smiling!
I on the other hand enjoyed my coffee & breakfast in my office.
Not sure why I was a bit nervous about this surgery since it involves his eyes...but as you can tell he was all smiles even after getting stuck with IV.
Doc said he needed to keep his eye shut until surgery so that it wouldn't dry out...meaning dry eye = delayed surgery. Mr is one of "those" people. He could not keep it shut for anything, so nursewife [yep me] took some surgical tape and shut it for him.
When the surgical anesthesiologist nurse came in, she laughed...
Once I seen who his nurse was I did a huge sigh of relief. She's one of my Runner Girls! I was never so grateful to see her.
I didn't take any after photos, I was just glad to see him, get at home instructions, and get him home! We had lunch, I did his scheduled eye drops and made him lay down for a while.
For me now I'll finish this post and get some rest as well...more scheduled drops yet tonight and follow-up appointment tomorrow.
