The earlier you go the surgery route, the easier the operation itself might be, especially when it comes to eye surgery. Just find the one clinic/specialist you can trust and go for it.
The mother of one of one of my mother's friends couldn't make her mind up to get her cataract treated for years. My mom on the contrary, went for it straight away, got a very satisfying result. Now said mother of her friend wishes she could do it earlier too. They are both old women, in this age, if you delay it too much, it might even become too late. For you it's not the case, but it still might matter, the earlier, the better :marseyshrug:
