I'm 66 and was surprised to hear the eye doc say to my complaint about glare from bright headlights at night, "You need cataract surgery".
I opted for mono vision which is one eye for distance and one for close up. I've done that naturally for years anyway and had read that even after paying $6,000 for multi focal there is still a chance of needing glasses.
The distance eye was done first and I was so pleased with how much better I saw that I was looking forward to the near eye lens replacement. But oddly 2 months after that eye surgery I have trouble reading the paper when I get up for at least an hour or so then I can read. The eye surgeon offers no explanation nor could I find anything online about this.
