So far I'm very pleased with the results. I feel that I'm 100% functional
from driving to reading very fine print. That being said I do have a bit of
the problem with the 19" LCD computer montior at three feet. I have the
resolution set to 1280 X 1024. The "optimum" distance for reading is about
14", I wish that was a bit longer.

That is a very commont complaint or comment. If a ReSTOR lens
implantation turns out perfect, people generally get good distance and
good near vision (but that near vision is about what you'd get with a
+3.00D Add)

I have had no surprises and they live up to the doc's predictions. All
distances are not as sharp as before the implants with good prescription
bi-focals. I was told up front this would be the case.

ReZOOM lenses typically provide better visual acuity than ReSTOR, but
they have their own downsides also. Likewise, with CrystaLens people
typically get better acuity and distance and intermediate, but not
nearly the right up close vision of your ReSTOR. All the current IOLs
have compromises, but they are certainly better than what we had to
offer our patients, even 5 or 10 years ago.

Glad you are enjoying your "new eyes".
