Default Cataract surgery cost & benefits

I had an evaluation yesterday at St Luke's to discuss cataract surgery options. While the basic lenses are covered by insurance, multi focal lenses are an out of pocket expense. I knew this going in but was surprised that the cost would be $4,000 per eye... much higher than I had anticipated. Also, I was told that I would lose some of my near vision in exchange for getting some distance focus if I went that route.

Has anyone had the multi focal done recently and would care to share cost and experience? Any regrets?
