You’ll get lens implants, just not this new type described in the article.

I had both lenses replaced several years ago. Now I have good distance vision after a lifetime of nearsightedness, but need glasses to read ordinary print. Beats cataracts.

I was farsighted with severe astigmatism in my left eye (could barely make out the big E on the eye chart)

Maybe 10 years ago I had prescription lens implants put in both eyes that totally eliminated the need for glasses. I can see far, I can read fine print.....Having been forced to wear glasses since I was 4 years old, it literally changed my life.

I am astygmatic. I was advised not to get the lens said to correct the problem because they are not really all that good.

My vision in one eye has deteriorated to the point the new lense is no longer effective. My other eye is ok and much improved after the cataract surgery.

It took longer to go through the pre surgery medical history and other paper work than it did to remove the cataract.
