Part of my dilemma is that I don't have good guidelines for choosing, and don't know if I should just go with my current ophthalmologist.

I don't want to be too explicit lest I put Citi-boards in danger of a lawsuit. You have got to be careful of what you say in print.
Worst was my GP who was both stupid and arrogant, unable to do anything except take my blood pressure.
She was also referral happy with other doctors affiliated with Mount Sinai. Worst doctor of my long life.

Net result: I sit here unable to see out of my right eye.

Re Cataracts: I have recently read in a medical paper that an eyedrop is in research to replace surgery. It might be awhile before it is approved but what a great medical advance.
