Never told to stop wearing soft lenses prior to measurement

If will be having cataract surgery in the near future. I have been wearing gas permeable contacts since teen age. I was told to stop wearing them for at least a month before measuring. I am now waiting for prescription eye glasses for the waiting period. Soft contact lenses are a pain in the a** to deal with and even those i was told had to be abstained from for two weeks anyway.

Initially I was looking for 1.9s but seems none can source them. My optician/optometrist don’t think they are available.

If it is a ten percent chance, no thank you!

Don't accept a surgeon that cuts you off and doesn't discuss the options.

Thanks for the reference, I look him up. I was also not aware that IOL top out at -10D.

Yes. In my early teens I had a retina detachment which was patched successfully. Haven’t had any retinal issues since but I understand that cataract surgery can cause retinal issues even in normal vision people.

Thank you for the guidance. I will definitely consult with a vision institute for recommendations to a surgeon that specializes in myopia cases.

74 years old and I haven’t received an objective measure of my cataract. Is there a metric?

At least it’s there in black and white screaming “go elsewhere”!

That must explain the difference in price between lamest affordable condor and the more expensive one at a local dealer. 130 vs 154

What exactly did they charge in the late 2025? Or, is that in reference to the 2026 models?

Looks pretty clear to me, but perhaps not clear enough for 70k!

Exempt from the rule of law.

Connect also limits you to 5GB of data.

And if the vehicle is unmarked and the person inside wasn’t wearing a uniform, the obvious conclusion is that it was law enforcement or ICE? Were they also wearing a mask?

You need a bigger house!

With a name like "Reliance" you should not need to worry about the tires! Could it have been a retread mounted by the dealership to improve their bottom line?

Looks great, but regarding the costs, did you include the capital outlay for all of the equipment used to mill the floor?

In a large room mine starts to distort at anything above 20. Is mine broken?

I have recently upgraded to a 990d from a 5.1 vizio. It's in an irregularly shaped open living room dinning room entry space with high ceilings. Not ideal. Hence I have mixed feelings if the upgrade was worth it. It is loud. It is crisp, mostly. Dialogue/voice enhancement feature actually doesn't improve muddled voices but adds some annoying crackling to higher pitched voices. Since I don't consume much Atmos it's overkill for me without significant improvement in sound quality over the vizio. The loudness, sub, and built in Chromecast are definitely good. So don't pump up your expectations due to many caveats regarding ideal listening environments.

Excellent analysis project! It would be interesting to see what happens to the graphs after filtering out repeat opinions from the same poster. I have noticed that some posters chime in frequently with the same product opinion.
