Cataract Surgery

Seeking folks experience with multi focal and tri focal lens
Posted on 6/7/26 at 6:49 pm to War Eagle 777
I have the multifocal. No complaints. I have 20/20 vision in one eye and 20/30 in the other. Don't need glasses at all.. The only drawback is halos and glare at night. Some people find it intolerable but after a few months I didn't notice it anymore.
ETA the first surgery was a breeze. The second was not bad, but there was a little discomfort. This is very common. The theory is you build up some tolerance to the sedation.

The unfortunate side of seeing better is that a lot of 6-7s become 4-5s.

Will keep an eye on things
and all the other jokes from the optometrist thread...

LOL I was talking to a fairly attractive woman the other day and I couldn't help noticing her teeth needed whitening.

I've just had vision in one eye for close-up and the other for distance. Works beautifully.
Prior to cataract surgery, I've had progressive lenses for glasses several times, but this is way better.

How far apart were the two surgeries

Well, did you do her a solid and tell her, or just let her go out like that?

I got the first one on a Tuesday and the second one on Friday. Typically it's a week apart but they had an opening and I wanted to get it out of the way.

I understand some people have trouble with the adjustment. How long did it take you and do you have the halo/glare issues?

Nah I let it go. I'm sure she knew anyway.

I had the custom lens replacement surgery in both my eyes a couple of years ago. Started a thread on here about it pre-surgery and through the experience.
Used Williamson Eye Center in Baton Rouge.
Have great results. No glasses, 15/20 vison.
Had both eyes done the same day since there was no insurance involved. (Elective surgery)

The nighttime halo effect of oncoming headlights happens in 90% of the clients, but in varying degrees. Mine is really minimal. I never think about it now.
