[QUOTE="TerryMiller, post: 3582551, member: 7900"] With my surgery and the preparation leading up to it, they used eye drops which apparently deaden the eye itself. During the surgery, there was an anesthetist present and he did a great job. Yes, I was awake during both surgeries for cataracts. Going into the first one, I'd have given my left leg for a smoke with my pipe that I gave up in 2003. During the surgery, I felt like I was "swaddled" and had no sense of even trying to move. During the second surgery, I was so relaxed that about half way through the procedure, the nurse told me that I needed to take a deep breath, which I did. Afterwards, I got to thinking that I think I was breathing so shallow because of no anxiety at all. Maybe they thought I had quit entirely. [/QUOTE]
