Hello,
I am 42 years old and have congenital cataracts. Over the last year, night driving has become problematic and I was considering having the cataracts removed. I am active physically (I box, although not professionally) and have been told that I will not have to stop boxing after the eyes have healed. Night glare is the only symptom I have.
The night glare is a real problem, but it's not so bad yet the I cannot drive. I have heard that cataract surgery is generally safe and the results predictable. I have read about the multifocal lenses. Right now, I am inclined to get the best distance vision I can get and just wear glasses for reading (I wear glasses to read now anyway). I was hoping you could give me suggestions as to things I should consider in making the decision to have the surgery or not.
Thanks
Steve
