    3. You had to rub it in didn't you Louise. Its yucky here and raining, You ro Sully. I can't wait till I can start gardening. Just the thought of getting a shot in the eye, ewwwwwwwww. What are those shots for and what are they supposed to do? I feel so bad for you. When I had my first cataract removed, I got 3 shots in my face by my eye. I had no idea that this is what the procedure was about. I turned my face to look at the doctor and saw this dagger of a needle coming towards me and in went the shot of Novacaine which hurt like heck and the 2 others. When I had the second one removed, there were no shots. He put a lot of drops in my eye to numb it which it did. The idiot doctor cut part of my eye that wasn't supposed to get cut and boy did it hurt. I saw real good for a while but my eyesite wasn't to good after that. My brother-in-law complained about the same thing. Barb

    3. well my gosh what kind of an eye Dr. did you go to? The place we go deals in glasses and all that but they are regular Drs. and do different kinds of surgery on the eye. They have another building there where all this is done. My husband and I both had cataracts removed and they did it with the drops to numb the eye, we were also out in never, never land so if they gave a shot then I didn't feel it. I kind of roused when he was getting my eye lashes out of the way and it kind of pulled. guess I moaned and I heard him say that. Seems the shot in the eye is kind of the old way I think. My son had that when they took the cataract out of his eye he was born with. This was a long time ago. They recorded it and I got to watch it on the tv. As long as I didn't relate it to him I was ok, but when I felt it was my son was a little more creepy. But he didn't feel any thing. He was a young man at that time. We are supposed to be in the 70's Friday. Sorry about that, darn. Shouldn't be. Need the rain of course now the almonds are blooming and the growers don't want that. Rains, the bees don't fly. Never satisfy every one. I felt worse having the shots for skin cancer more than the eye thing. They do it, then there is a Dr. there that examines it to see if they have got all of it, if not then maybe have to shoot you up again and do another. Then wait again for the other guy. I only had to have one done twice and it was from a regular Dr. and not the skin Dr. He didn't get it all the first time, he sent his tests out, so when I went back then had to schedule for it again. I guess still not all as the skin Dr. did it again a few years down the road. But the others the skin Dr. has done they havn't come back. He does really good work.
