Harry Reid to Undergo Eye Surgery

I suspected thar he was injured more severely than the first reports admitted. There is a picture at the link. Poor man, he looks unrecognizable until I read the caption.

"Senate Minority Leader Harry Reid is scheduled to have eye surgery on Monday, a result of his New Year’s Day exercise accident.

“On Monday, as a necessary step to assist in recovering full vision in his right eye, Senator Reid will undergo surgery on his right eye at George Washington University Hospital in Washington, D.C.,” said Reid spokeswoman Kristen Orthman. “Senator Reid was notified that this surgery will be necessary following a doctor’s appointment yesterday.”

The 75-year-old Nevada Democrat was back at the Capitol Tuesday after working from home since the beginning of the year. He is expected to return to the office Thursday before being out again next week following the surgery."
