I just wanted to add, since I've had the basic cataract surgery done so can't advise on your question. That said though...keep in mind that the process of the surgeries take up approx. 8 weeks of your life from the 1st eye to the 2nd eye (most docs space them 2 weeks apart). BUT the drops for healing afterwards and the re-checks (depending on the patient) will take you out approx 8 weeks. I had mine done through Ocala Eye and couldn't be happier with the results. I do have to wear "readers" which has been a bit of an adjustment but I'll take it over being able to see once again.
I understand what you're saying about costs. I think they're all pretty standard here at the various clinics in The Villages. I can't speak to "up north" prices. I'm just telling you that "IF" you'd opt for "up north"...you may have to stay up there for the healing/re-check process and is that worth it to you in the long run??!!
