Ophthalmologist experienced in cataract surgery on a person with only one eye?

I have a prosthetic in my left eye and have worn multifocal contacts in my “good” eye for many years. I am developing cataracts in that eye and I want to have a multifocal IOL replacement when I have cataract surgery. I would like a surgeon that has a track record with operating in someone with only one eye and I don’t know how to find out if a doctor has that expertise. I live near Houston TX, but with travel to find a doctor with this experience.
