Beekeeping > Healing From The Hive
Cataracts
Ray:
I've got cataracts and I am also am at risk for detached retina(s) which may complicate surgery.
Anybody know of any cures from the hive (or elsewhere)?
Bakersdozen:
So sorry to hear that Ray. I don't know any cures from the hive. But I will say that modern medicine has made a lot of advances in this area. Cataract removal is a walk in the park. Detached retina, I don't have any experience with. Good luck to you.

My wife had cataract surgery as an out patient and it might have taken 20 minutes, i couldn't believe it :o. My eye doctor says i have a starting of cataracts, but not bad enough for surgery yet. I went to him for what he called floaters, when working bees it sometimes looks like a bee is coming or is to close to my eyes ;D, i don't think there is much they can do for floaters :sad: Jack

I read this just a few days ago. A guy in BC invented them and they could soon be available.
