Hi Lynkim
You have received a lot of replies and I have skimmed through them.
However, I do not know if one of the significant improvements that new eye lens can achieve has been mentioned.
It is that when you have cataracts the eye lens tend to get a dull brown caste.
This limits viewing at the blue end of the spectrum. My first experience when I got my eyes done is that I could see the blue end much better (it was quite a surprise!).This has a big advantage in astronomy as any images of deep space objects appear much clearer and colourful when the blue spectrum is fully restored by your new eyesite. Also you will find that things that you thought were a certain colour (such as room walls, clothing, curtains etc) appear different and often more attractive.
My eye doctor said "you now have the eyesight of a child!"
Cheers Peter
