I had one eye done about 8 years ago at age 48. Very young for them but it was a trauma induced cataract caused by a fall. Either off a horse or skiing. Insurance paid for all except the distance lense. Then about 3 years ago I had the other eye done and did an even better distance lense in that eye. Occasionally need cheaters for medicine bottles or stuff that small. But no need for glasses to read! So happy I spent the extra money on the distance lenses.
