Hood886 , what do you know about prelex? I'm getting evaluated tomorrow since my eyes are getting worse. Currently don't wear glasses (probably need them); but my eyes give me fits a lot of the time. 1.25 reading glasses, and one eye sees better close and the other better far off.
You mind if I ask your age? Basically prelex is cataract surgery and instead of a single vision lens they give you a lens that is supposed to let you see up close also. Honestly I have not been impressed with any of the multifocal lens implants and if I was having cataract surgery I'd just go for a standard lens or lens that also fixes astigmatism if you have a significant amount. The multifocal lenses are very patient dependent and will not give you vision like when you were 20. It might give you a little boost up close but probably not enough. I personally wouldn't pay the extra for it. You might be more interested in a mono vision set up where one eye is set at distance and the other up close. Sounds like that's how you have been and might prefer to stay that way.
