I finally got up the nerve to hit balls after surgery.
I had cataracts removed and lense implants in January. I waited so long because the adjustment to no glasses is mind boggling, after wearing bifocals for decades.
Here's how it went. The biggest change after the surgery is how bright everything appears. Cataracts slowly darken every until white appears tan.
I hit balls on a 9 ft Diamond with light blue Simonis cloth. The reflection from the cloth and the balls was overwhelming. I actually considered getting my Oakley golf shades.
After a while my eyes adjusted.
I had a hard time making anything. I noticed I was switching dominate eyes unconsciously. After I adjusted things begin to click.
I had a couple of 4 and 5 ball runs on the tight pockets. Not bad after 20 years off.
Was the surgery worth it? So far, Hell yes!
Seeing the entire table without squinting between bifocals and glass frames is priceless.
I'm going to practice for a month and see if I can play again.
More to follow when I figure out the technical pros and cons.
