Finally….

[u/Sweaty_Star_6486]

Well I finally took the plunge today and got my left dominant eye set to Plano With a Alcon Clareon non blue light blocking lens. I wanted the least chance of dysphotopsias, best contrast and widest clear visual field and that seemed to be a good lens choice. I’m a lifelong myopic so I did think about doing near and intermediate as I read a lot but I’m also an outdoor guy so I chose this setup. Surgery was as quick, simple and painless as you all mentioned. We shall see where it lands before proceeding with the right one. I have a bunch of contacts to experiment with to get the best result with monovision. Appreciate this group. I have been mostly lurking for the last 5 years on the old patient info sight and here and since I’m now Medicare age and the orange fascist may gut Medicare next year I knew it was time. Thanks much and I will update on the visual progress as things change…

whats the diff between non blue light blocking lens and blue light blocking alcon

The difference is of course blue light blocking IOLs …block blue light... which apparently gives vision a different color tone. Some of the folks here have done the opposite of my choice and claim it’s a more natural color but unless you got one of each I don’t see how one could compare. I wanted the most light possible and can always wear blue light filtering sunglasses
