Think about your life style. I did not want my distance vision corrected, because they said I would have to wear reading glasses. I love to read lying on my side in bed at night, and it would be very uncomfortable to have to wear reading glasses. That would be a big change in my lifestyle, making something I've done my whole life difficult. I went with just the normal cataract lenses.

From people I know who had the bifocal kind, the amount of light around you makes a difference. My friends have had to use reading glasses anyway, in situations such as church and restaurants and other low-light situations. I haven't met anyone yet who has been thrilled with them, and several who have said they aren't worth the extra money. But maybe there have been advances recently. I had mine done in 2012.

I am pretty sure that is per lens. And if they do not work that great you are out the money.

I think that anyone that wants these lenses should do a very good check on what they buy you.
