Hi Quid, can't offer you anything more useful than others have, but just wanted to wish you the best of luck. 🙂

BTW. while I wouldn't count on it, these days even when the proverbial hits the fan badly, it's can be possible to do do something about it.

Mil didn't have cataract ops when offered and was slowly going blind in her 60's.

She was very lucky and got a lens transplant in her early 70's. Failed to do the right things in recovery (much more rigid than post cataract care) and ruined it, and amazingly was then offered one for the other eye. Having finally learnt her lesson, she followed post op instructions, and it gave her good sight until her mid 80's when she no longer needed it.
