I had both eyes done at the same time in 2020. I was awake. It took the doctor about six minutes per eye, sat for about 1/2 hour and went home.

Hey Carolyn! I hadn't had any of your videos pop up in my feed lately, so thought I'd seek you out. Glad your cataract surgery has gone well. So sweet of you and Ron helping out a friend! Hope the solar install went well. I was watching this with headphones on and heard the pup growling and started looking around for my dogs and why they were growling, lol! Take care and be blessed! -Sue

RE: helping your kiddo. I helped my son thru his first year of his fed job as he was on the lowest TSA tier pay-wise, got him through his probation period of one year. Lots of $$$ and groceries every month etc. He received a big pay raise and bonus after his 1 yr, so now he is ok. Haters be gone! At least he is safe in his job and NOT OTR trucking now. I'd do anything for my kid. From trucker to TSA certified officer go figure. Tell you son that this is a great job with LOTS of benefits. Makes this retired fed so proud. Just passing the word. Maybe your boy can check it out.

Listening to you talk about Zeva and her growling made think about how I would always shush my dog Mickey when he would do the same thinking it was nothing. What if one time it is a serial killer trying to break in and kill you/me and we dismissed it? I realize I probably watch waaaay too much true crime. 😝

Carolyn thank you for the update. The sad part about getting older is spending your time going to doctors. Not a fun thing that's for sure. I'm going through radiation for cancer in my right lung and is the second time in doing so. So sweet of you and Ron helping out a friend. Take care and Love ya as always.

Thanks a bunch for describing your cataract surgery. I was diagnosed with cataract on my last eye exam and will be evaluated by an ophthalmologist next month for possible surgery. I was nervous, but knowing from you that it's not too invasive, I'm feeling much better about it. Take care of your eyes. That's what we get for being seniors, right? 😄

I've been following you Carolyn for years and living vicariously through your adventures. I'm homebound mostly but unless my hubby takes me for a ride or we dine out now and then. I do however like to look pretty for him. What brand and color lipstick do you wear including liner. It's perfect. Also, your foundation and liner. I'd love to find out. I know it's off topic but you're so pretty and curious as I would order on Amazon! Have you thought about doing a full makeup tutorial on this make-up? I think many of us would love it. My name is Dawn. Thank you.

Glad things are going well for you Caroline. I had cataract surgery in both of my eyes and I was awake for both and coherent as to what was going on during the procedure. I will say my experience was great and I am so happy that I had it done, as I needed it done ! And each procedure only took maybe 15 minutes ( ?? ) and afterward the nurse helper who wheeled me back into the prep room asked me if I could stand up, to which I replied YES........LET ME THE HELL OUTTA HERE !!! Uh, just kidding there....:-} :-}. Anyway, I have a life long friend who needs ' it ' but he is deafly afraid of having anything done to his eyes ( we're both 72 ) and I emphatically told him Rob......it is a walk in the park, easy peasy !! I'm sure at some point he will do it, and the sooner the better ! For me, before I had it done, driving at night was scary as cars coming at you, and especially cars with LED headlights, created this blinding, huge starburst effect that I literally had to pull over to the side of the road, because of loosing track where the damn road was. Anyway, wishing you well Caroline. Doug.
