cataract extraction & multifocal lens insertion
by bob782, Jun 17, 2009 02:17PM
I am a 75 year old retired physician with bilateral cataract extractions and insertion of multi-focal lenses in the past year. I've kept an ongoing journal of my experiences with these lenses and would like to share information I've gained with others who have had similar surgery or are contemplating cataract extraction with insertion of multi-focal lenses.Would it be possible to post my journal on MedHelp?

Dear bob782,
As a physician who answers questions in the medhelp section, I am not aware of how to accomplish this task. Try going to medhelp.org and contacting someone in the administrative department. I am sure that other individuals would like to hear your experiences.

I'll keep trying & will follow this very useful site.
The two forums on this site contain a wealth of information about ReStor lenses. There have been several posts during recent months from unhappy ReStor patients who had their IOLs explanted and replaced. This may be a good option for you, too.
I have my first cataract surgery scheduled for July 8 and am trying to decide which IOL to get. Your journal confirms my decision to avoid multifocals.
I'm sure your journal will be helpful to many.
