When I had my cataract surgery, I got a presentation from my eye doctor about these lenses and the fact that many insurance companies will not pay for other than the basic lenses. I can only say from word of mouth that they are not that great.

I got the basic lenses and they are great for long distance sight but I still need reading glasses for close up. $1.00 a pair at Marion market.

My insurance will not pay for them and the up charge is $2750.
