2. My 70 year old husband is about to have his 2nd eye done

He has no complaints! They did something fancy with his lens. Not sure exactly what, but I think he has closeup vision in one eye and long distance in other?

He's not an artist but he's really good at fixing things, using close vision.

Be sure to do your research and ask a lot of questions!
