Medicare and your supplement will pick up most or all of that, EXCEPT for the implants that correct your vision. Then they will pick up a portion of your new eyeglasses that you had to get due to the surgery.

There are cataract implants that only correct the cataract. If you want 20/20 vision, where I went it was an additional $1800 for those types of implants.

If you need reading glasses right now, do some research on the bifocular implants. I know three people who had them and were dissatisfied with how they worked in low-light situations such as restaurants and church. Had to still use readinng glasses.
