[QUOTE="TheDoubleD, post: 3505885, member: 43754"] Year and a half ago got it done. My regular eye doctor told me I needed it. We talk about what I wanted. I told him I wanted to be able shoot using irons sights. He told me I already had one eye seeing close and the other seeing far. Said I should be able to see rifle sight better right eyed and pistol sights better left eyed. I am left handed and do just that pistol left, rifle right. He told me If I requested right eye correction for long vision and left eye correction for close, it would cost me extra money. If he sent over a standard prescription for basic correction of each eye as is, it would be the base price. That is standard correction for my left eye (already seeing close) to allow me to continue seeing close and standard correction for my right eye (already seeing far) to allow me to continue seeing far. The last thing I asked my eye doctor was who would he go to. I told him who my wife used. He sent me elsewhere. My Eye doctor also told me that I may or may not need glasses to read after the procedure. He said buy a set of cheap reading glasses at Walmart if you need them. He said wait a year after the procedure and come in for an eye check up. This advice was repeated by the Cataract surgeon. After the procedure, I have not had a needed glasses at all. I see gunsights just fine, read just fine, no glasses. [/QUOTE]
