I had cataract surgery with just the eyedrops that numb your eyes, plus valium to calm my nerves. I had multi focal lenses implanted after the cataracts were removed, and it was the best decision I’ve ever made (other than marrying my husband). The surgery lasted 10-15 minutes for each eye, one week apart. Great experience, but make sure you trust your doctor. There are good ones and then there are GREAT ones. Hold out for the GREAT ones.

Ditto here....... just some numbing drops and a little something to calm you down. I was rather frazzled knowing they were cutting into my eye—even though it was practically microscopic....but I was pretty calm when it was time for the second one..... Yup, also had a great doctor.

I had one multifocal implantation.
Returning for an evaluation of the procedure, I couldn’t make out the letters that would have given me 20-20 vision. The technician said, “squint”.

Be sure you really need cataract surgery. I wanted to be free of rings that formed around a bright light. They’re worse now!
