[null and void]

I had one eye done a couple years ago, the the other this year. Paid a premium for Baush+Lomb Crystalens both times.

The Crystalens uses your own eye muscles to adjust focus near and far quite like the factory equipment. Anything more than about 18” away is clear as a bell.

If I had it to do over again I think I would have gone for a closer Rx on one lens, as I still need cheaters for close work.

Had both procedures done fully awake with only local anesthesia, no problems.

Prep and post-op is eye drops to ward off infections and speed healing, about a week’s worth on either side. No big deal.

Occasionally the back of the lens capsule will flop forward and adhere to the back of the implant and blur the vision in that eye. It takes about 3-5 minutes of zapping with a YAG laser to fix this, and that possibility was included in the cost of the original procedure.

Hope this helps.

I had to have the YAG laser done on both eyes maybe a year after the cataract surgery.

Talk about a piece of cake! It literally only took a few seconds.

I've got advanced cataracts, and am damn near blind at this point. Just waiting for Medicare to kick in, in a couple months, then I'm going for the surgery.

I've read that the Bausch & Lomb accommodating lenses are the Rolls Royce of the industry, so that's what I'm shooting for.

Thanks for the positive review.
