at two weeks you should be discussing their concerns with your surgeon, especially sticky eye and your expectations of vision without glasses.

Hi,
      You may have a monofocal lens fitted whiich is corrected for distance...and therefore you will neeed reading glasses ...also depends on what your final prescription is now..if it  is on the ' + ' side than ..whilst having good distance vision you may need glasses to correct ..to get good overall vision.
I cannot answer regarding sticky eye..as i have had surgery in both eyes and have not experieced this.

You may need to give some time for the eye to settle down....so i would not panic...and hopefullly all will be fine.
