The new lens is great; from about three feet out I can see better than I have in- well, most of my life.
Yes, there's a but.
My left eye has a problem(not fixable, probably in my lifetime) that makes it unable to focus sharply on small things up close. Not that much of a problem, except with the right unable to sharply focus up close... That will be fixable with a new prescription on lens to take care of the close-up stuff by the right, but you can't get that until a month after the surgery, to give everything time to settle in and find any problem/possible problem. So next week can get that, then the wait for the new lens. In the meantime, the doc suggested a set of cheap reading glasses to carry me through. They work for reading and other up-close stuff, but are useless beyond about 18", which means I either fumble my way through when away from home, or carry those along.
Beats hell out of the alternative that used to be the standard, but still a pain.
