I was almost blind because of cataracts, I could only see light and shadows. I got lost in my house, I moved by feeling the things around me. The hardest thing for me was not being able to work in the garden, which I love the most. In autumn, I didn’t see anything, I sat on a small chair, close to the ground, and planted by feel. It was really hard! But I was very afraid of the operation, because I saw in Novi Sad how people went blind after an unsuccessful operation, and that’s why I kept postponing it. I heard about this clinic and finally encouraged myself to come. Immediately after the operation, I saw, as if I had come out of a thick fog. If someone had told me this was possible, I wouldn’t have believed it! I would like my story to encourage other people, who keep postponing the operation, to understand that the cataract must be operated on and that it is better as soon as possible, so that they do not face this hell that I went through.
