Retina Surgery: What I Expected vs. What Actually Happened

Retina surgery wasn’t something I ever had on my bingo card, but here we are. I went into it with a general idea of what the procedure involved, yet there were still moments that caught me off guard.

On NielFlamm.com → Videos → Cataracts, I share my honest thoughts on the surgery itself, what recovery felt like immediately after, and the small but meaningful things I didn’t anticipate—changes in vision, daily routines, and how patience suddenly becomes non-negotiable.

It’s one thing to read about retina surgery. It’s another to live it. If you’re facing something similar, curious about the process, or want real talk instead of medical pamphlet language, I break it all down in the video.
