I know how you feel. I went to a doctor I was put on blood pressure medication. We're shooting for 150 over 90 . I asked isn't that high? And he said yeah. Call your insurance company. I have a high-deductible too, but they might cover eye exams and needed procedures

Holy macaroni! I can't even imagine.

Sheesh, I had mine done 5 years ago and Medicare took care of the whole thing. What gives here? I must be living ina great area. After the surgery, I renewed my drivers license and for the first time in 62 years, I passed the eye test without glasses.

Eye surgery today is a breeze,compared to even 15 years ago, I had my right eye Cataract done in San Diego about 20 years ago,and my left eye done after our move to Missouri about 10 years ago. You will see sharper,colors will be more vivid,no more squinting to read a book,use the computer or cell phone.

I had a 6k deductible/copay when I got both eyes done 2 years ago. Had to refi my house to raise the money. The thought of surgery was very scary to me and I worked myself into a miserable state waiting to have it. But now that's all over, I can go without glasses for the first time since 1973, and I'm enjoying collecting cheap sunglasses now, and wearing them!
