Thank you for your reply , In answer to your question I had very little vision the day after
operation - it took  2- 3 days to clear . I now have very good intermediate vision  but increasing blurred vision the further the distance, can not read large road signs 150 ft away. I do have good distance vision with right eye. my focus seems to shift back and forth between right and left eye

Please do not shout.  All caps is shouting.  The power is off or you had a myopic shift in the Crystalens eye.  You halos should get better in your right eye.  You need to find out your refraction in the left eye.  It is most likely a little near sighted.  Cycloplegic drops may help if this is  due to a post op myopic shift.  Did you see well for distance the day after surgery?
