[QUOTE="TheDoubleD, post: 3580607, member: 43754"] I had good results with BVA. I was referred there by my regular eye Doctor. I asked him where he was going for his cataracts? Before going to BVA, my eye Doctor and I discussed my eyes and what I wanted from my eyes, and shooting irons sights was one of my goals. It was having difficulty shooting iron sights and that made me get the exam to start with. He said the double vison I was having was not correctable with glasses only with cataract surgery. He said my eyes already were functioning one eye for short vision, one for long, so he wrote me a script to take with me. The script wrote what correction each eye need and I was not charged the extra fee-Medicare and GEHA paid everything. I had been wearing glasses for 30 years. After the cataract surgery, I no longer need glasses. I can see things clearly close and see the front sight on my rifle. I can read road signs far off again. I do not need cheaters to see close. Once in a while things will get a bit blurry, but that goes away when I turn my head a bit. I did find that I had problem after surgery with depth of field- trying to thread 6 pound mono through the eye of a crappie jig was challenging. Last visit to my eye Doctor he said it takes two eyes focused at the same distance for depth of field. He said bring in a set of old glasses and he would regrind the lens to fix that for close up. Get the surgery, it is quick and easy, and does wonders for your eyes. I had some floaters for a while after and they went away. But the Surgeon said I probably would for while, and if they didn't go away , they can remove them. [/QUOTE]
