slotman-It depends on whether or not he hit his target refraction. If he ended up a little plus, than you are right, Based on that information, if he does the second eye and shoots for a little minus based on the information off the first eye, then you are going to be happy. 8 weeks can also be early for some patients to adapt and he could be right as near can take a little longer to come in. Do you need the second eye done as well? If near does not come in, then have a Restor in the second eye for near. Eye surgery today is so fast and painless that many tend to forget they had major surgery on an organ and it takes time to heal from corneal to retinal swelling etc. Once things settle down than things tend to get better. I would also ask about astigmatism as that can be a cause of poor near vision. Ask some more questions and give it some more time. Also, when you have the second eye donw, things can come together for you. Give us some more information.
At 71, you might still take some time to adapt to near. Sounds like he knows what he is doing. If by June your near does not kick in, than the Restor will take care of it and you should have the best of both worlds.
Found this forum while searching for ReZoom lens info. I had a ReZoom lens installed 8 weeks ago and am sorry I spent the $2500 over and aove what Medicare will cover for the standerd lens surgery. My DR. insisted ReZoom would be the altimate way to go since I wanted up-close vision without magnifiers. Not so as of today. I still need my glasses for up-clse work. He says one morning I will wake up and VOILA. I say he's full of ****...Comments
