This is one of the best explanations I've heard. I had monovision implants with my cataract surgery in 2003. Back then insurance paid for it. I was 51 years old (early onset cataracts family trait) and this was cutting edge. My doctor told me that "old people" (me now) don't adjust well. They're stuck in their ways and used to wearing glasses and don't want to adjust. Taking away a lifetime of being nearsighted was a game changer!!! I can see a clock in middle of night and I can see when I go swimming. The benefits go on and on. I'd do it again today, no matter the cost. My ophthalmologist changed my life.
