3. I was nearsighted to begin with and got the near IOLs

I am delighted. I could always see close up without glasses, and now I can see close up from a bit further away, again without glasses. I was horribly myopic for years, so I have had to wear distance-vision glasses .

Like I said, I am delighted. I have varifocal glasses (I've been wearing glasses for decades), and my total vision is much better than it used to be.

I couldn't stand the thought of wearing glasses just for reading. I prefer not to wear glasses for reading, etc. In fact, right now, I'm typing this on the laptop with no glasses. That was my personal preference, and I am very happy I went that way.

You should hopefully be able to change IOLs, but I think it needs to be done pretty quickly.
