About a year ago, I went to an opthalmologist because I needed new contact. She told me I needed reading glasses. I said oh hell no.
She said try that. And I said oh shit that's amazing!
So, now I have contacts for blind people (-6.50 both eyes) and reading glasses to see planets and stars far away (+1.75)
When I tried multifocals last year, I didn't like them. I could read a bit better but vision afar was not great. So I decided against.
Question: are there multifocal contacts that allow for such a spread between close up and far vision?
Also, she said that there was some mild cataract (I guess I'm getting old) that probably will need to be addressed surgically in the next 10 years or so.
I don't want to go back to her because I didn't particularly like her (not friendly one bit) so I need to find someone else here but wouldn't mind opinions of experts or other folks who have screwed up eyes too.
