I found myself having to change eyeglasses a little more frequently - for regular exam and getting eyeglasses, I used EUROPTIC located on 2nd Road opposite Royal Garden, but I think she has now moved into the Royal Garden.
I decided it was time for a complete eye exam which I had at BHP. The lady doctor said I had cataracts in both eyes. She said I could continue getting new eyeglasses but could instead have surgery to remove them but could wait if I wished. I was reluctant to have surgery and purchased new eyeglasses. But as the cataracts grew, my vision continued to change even more frequently, so I decided it was time for surgery.
Dr. Srisuraj at BHP performed the surgery on one eye and checked the results the following day, then he did the other eye. I chose monofocal lenses (far vision) primarily due to cost as the multifocal lenses (far and near vision) were much more expensive. Another factor in my choice was my USA health insurance would cover only the cost of surgery and monofocal lenses; not multifocal.
I am glad I had the surgery did and kicked myself for not doing it sooner. This was several years ago. I do need glasses for reading, but that is not a problem as a pair of cheap drugstore eyeglasses do the job.
