When I had cataract surgery, I had one eye corrected for near-sighted and one eye corrected for far-sighted. That way, I can get by without glasses 99% of the time. I can drive as well as read without wearing glasses! When I am doing up-close work, I use cheaters because that helps to magnify the work. I do plan to get a pair of glasses that will correct my eyes in the opposite manner for intermediate vision. The main thing is I really don't have to have them. It has been wonderful not having to wear glasses after wearing them for 30 years.
