When I had cataract lens replacement surgery, my ophthalmologist used the ‘monovision’ approach: one eye was corrected for distance vision, while the other eye was corrected for reading. It’s surprising, but somehow the brain combines these inputs seamlessly. This approach presumably isn’t for everyone, but it has worked extremely well for me, as I haven’t needed glasses since my surgery — under any conditions!

Exactly the same for me. Left eye for near, right eye for far. The brain adapts and I have no need for glasses.
