Yes Glenn, that's what I would think too. However, is bleeding a real danger in cataract surgery....I don't know. The doc may be between a rock and the hard place, taking a risk either way. However he should discuss this with YOU, until YOU understand, because it's YOU who are taking the risk, and you have a right to choose which risk you are willing to take.
Let's just pray you can get this over with, and back on the blood thinner. I know...it feels like a time bomb right now. Do what you have to do, and try to not worry...
