I was severely myopic- could not even see my hands without glasses. Now I only need glasses for distance. I chose single vision lenses that allow me to see close up without glasses. And then have this sort of nothing prescription for distance. Less than -3 diopters each eye. Wow, what a difference!

I got so used to not driving at night, that I forget that I actually can do it now.

I was scared of the whole thing and let the cataracts get so bad that they had to do both eyes on the same day. Which was rough.

But utterly worth it.

For years I just stared at everything. I had no idea that the cataracts had removed so much of my vision.
