I am 60 years old, could see well in distance, used readers for reading. When the Dr. told me I had cataracts and needed surgery, he reommended the Restor Lens implants (at an additional $3000. over what insurance would pay. I choose to get these after reading the material they put out. That was 8 months ago. I cannot see well now at all. Difficulty in using computer, reading, reading music (I am an organist) and my nighttime vision has so many halos that I don't drive at night. My Dr. thinks I should be satified as when I am in his office, he says I read the charts well. When I leave his office, I know I cannot see well at all My intermediate vision is terrible, my close-up vision is also bad and neither can be helped with reading glasses anymore. He even gave me a -1 reader, no luck. and with not being able to drive at night, I am very distressed and wish I had never had this surgery. What could have gone wrong? What should I do? Get a second opinion? Live with it? Could my Dr have made a mistake in the strength of the lens? HELP.
