Wow - various vision problems improved.
1st left eye, monofocal IOL, 2 days ago. Super happy. Before surgery, I had light sensitivity, and moderate ambient light caused the eye to fail to pick out detail, like pointing your camera towards the sun and losing image contrast, clarity. This issue is essentially gone. I had a region off center, which was more blurry. Gone. Always seemed like I was looking through a film, like scotch tape on my glasses. Gone. This was my left, poorer eye, which also has a macular pucker. The pucker and its wavy lines distortion is still there as expected. Used to be my right eye was the preferred eye I relied on. Currently, it is now my left, even with the pucker. Comparing my left, new lens to my right, I see significant, better vivid color, ability to look into bright sunny areas with superior acuity. So, I anticipate great improvement in my right eye after cataract surgery next week. The point I want to make is my retina specialist nor 3 ophthalmologists I've seen in the last 2 years suggested the significant improvement I'm experiencing when I would describe and complain about the aforementioned vision problems. My latest ophthalmologist did order the cataract surgery but was not imphatic about how it should address much of my complaints. I don't fault him, and I understand they shouldn't create expectations that might not be realized. I hope this post will help others.
