Yes, I changed the look of the blog. And, a report on my cataract surgery

There are two entries about Mary below this posting for the latest on her situation.

Before we went to Stanford on Tuesday afternoon, I had my 3rd follow up exam with my ophthalmologist. The bottom line is that my right eye, the eye that has been at 20-400 (without corrective lenses) for fifty years is now 20-25 or so. And, the astigmatism which was rather pronounced is virtually gone. My doctor explained that he is one of the few doctors in this area who will take the time to figure out precisely where and what kind of incision to make in the eye plus using a special, difficult suture that allows him to adjust astigmatism as part of the surgical recovery process.  Amazing.

Again, for those who are interested, the information about the astigmatism being fixed is here.  The conversion of US eye measurements to other international measurements is here.
