What a coincidence! I just had my cataract surgery on Friday in my right eye!! I had a retinal detachment last summer and the vitrectomy caused a catatact. I had 2 drops 4 times a day as well! Kind of annoying, but necessary haha. I'm a -13 I think, but now I can see more or less without glasses in my right eye. Still need a very strong prescription for my left, though. Huge difference in vision between eyes. Now I either wear my contact in my left eye or my glasses, which I modified to cover the right eye like a patch. I wish you a quick recovery!!
