I went for the basic lens. My ins and Medicare will not pay for the multi-focal lens. $2500 per eye when I had mine done last year. I tried asking on this forum about the different lenses and only one person replied that he got the multi-focal lens.

And when you ask the doctor about the multi-focal lenses the response is that you MIGHT not have to wear reading glasses. For that price I would want a more definite response.

I can buy a lot of reading glasses for $5000.
