Blurred Vision After Surgery

After implant of Multifocal Lens reading vision improved, but distance vision blurry.  Before surgery distance vision was near perfect.  Now I need glasses for distance, lights have large halos.  I'm a pilot by profession and feel devastated by this surgery.  Can these lens be removed and replaced with the monofocal lens for distance?

I have ReStor.  I had scar tissue removed and the doctor said that I can never have them removed now.
