IF THAT IS THE ONLY THING THIS PERSON HAS TO WORRY ABOUT THEN THEY SHOULD GET A HOBBY.  PARTY ON @elizabethl123!

Adeline, first let me day that I am impressed that at 88 years young, you post at all.  Many seniors don't want to learn new technology, so good for you.  As others here have said, do what makes you comfortable and continue to post in a way that is good for you.  There is always someone who thinks they know better, just ignore them.

P.S. don't you love auto correct, should have said, "first let me say."

If you can't see this,  let me know and I'll use this to help others see better and join in too.

Frankly, I would post the way I wanted to.  Most people here understand when someone has a sight problem and will give you the benefit of the doubt.  I have cataracts so I understand. Just like now....I can see this darker print much better than the post title above.  Once in a while there is good reason to "buck the system"!!  Happy posting!

@jubilant  Hey, I just got my cataracts removed last June.  PLEASE get yours removed and replaced with good lenses.........it's like a whole new world now; I don't even need glasses for anything!

I have an appointment with my eye doctor in September.  I am so glad your experience was positive.  I'm a little apprehensive about having my eyes messed with since they both need to be done.  I know they only do one at a time.....but still. Thanks for letting me know how well yours went. I appreciate your encouraging post.

I can understand cataracts.  Had mine removed about 10 years ago and the world opened up.  Now I have to learn how to do dark print on posting.  God Bless the 88 year old poster.  I,m 81 and hope to reach 88 and still post and be interested.   Shame on those that are critical..  Just figured out bold print.

POst the way you want.  At 81,  I understand.  We are lucky to be posting, and still interested in communicating.  I forget how to spell sometime.  Welcome to these post.  Careful, some very nice, some get mean, only a few unhappy ones, most nice and understanding.

@jubilant  Girl, don't hesitate to do it, but it's very important to have a good doc with lots of experience.  If you can afford the extra cost (not cheap), I recommend the premium, multi-focal lenses like I got.  Insurance covers only the basic lenses and the actual surgery.  The premium lenses are optional, but you won't need glasses with those.  I was able to see brighter colors and 20/20 the very next day. I was wide awake during the entire procedure, but I didn't feel anything and only saw the bright laser light.  They did mine exactly 2 weeks apart, but I could see so much better even after just the first one was done.  I was riding my bike later that same day!
