When your doctor tells you that you should undergo an eye surgery, it is a kind of shock at first. It is even more shocking when you realize that your eyes make your livelihood. I was lucky that I learned about Dr. Novák from a friend of mine who had her own personal experience with cataract surgery. I took heed of her advice and underwent surgery on one eye and later on the other eye. Today I know that my fears were unnecessary. With “my new eyes” I can now see the world more clearly and colourfully.
