RE: lens choice for cataract surgery

ImJustAnotherOkie, I’m wondering which focal length did you choose: near, intermediate or far?

How do the glasses needed for the other distances work out for you now?

Also, thanks to Reno89519 for explaining how this aspect of it works for you!

I chose distant or far. That way, outside I don't need glasses. I keep a pair of glasses for my computer set for arm/hand length+4 inches, my reading glasses are the industry normal, I think 16 inches.

I ended up having two additional pair made, distance/computer, one clear and the other shaded so that I have both in the car for day or night so I can read the dash.

To be honest, I can read but it is fuzzy, and if it is small print closer than my arm/hand length, forget it. That's a bit frustrating to have to keep glasses handy for that, but worth it overall.

I AM VERY HAPPY WITH RESULTS OF SURGERY!

I didn’t get the optional stuff. I still sometimes need reading glasses sometimes but not always.

The Contrast improvement was a life changer. I hear people doing laser can get side effects but my night vision is just like new.

One other thing, it was 10 minutes to get the surgery. Eyes were done 2 weeks apart. The biggest pain was the drops but they work really well getting rid of the discomfort.

The eyes are still a little sensitive when I rub them.
