Cataract update

The ReZoom lens in my left eye is working splendidly. I have excellent distance and middle distance vision (as near as I can tell with the other eye closed), but I still can’t reliably read a book in my hand. It is improving some every day, though. A few days ago, I couldn’t read with it at all. So I’m happy. It is possible I’ll end of needing reading glasses, but maybe not.

One of the really cool things about this is the color shift. For the first time, I realize the walls in my office are not shaded a dingy yellow - they’re white! It’s not a big huge difference, but I had not realized that the cataracts were already affecting my vision.

I am eager to get the other eye done.
