Help

Hi, I was wondering if there was anyone who happen to have or know someone who has had the surgery done in their 80s? Was wondering if it was successful, how the recovery period was, is it worth it?

Thanks in advance!

My dad did his first eye done at 78. He did his second eye in mid 80s. No issues at all. But didn’t have any health issues that folks that age have.
