I'm scheduled for cataract surgery (lens replacement) in a few weeks, and I'm very nervous.

I hate having my eyes examined or touched at all, and even have difficulty with eye drops. Yes, I know lens replacement is very common, takes only a few minutes, and is probably the safest kind of surgery. I'm still nervous.
