no experience withthe surgery yet
but my story about cataracts is

--to me anyway
I went to get a check up so I could get new eyeglasses. I have worn glasses for near sightedness( cannot see far away) since I wa s9 years old.
My new eye doc told me I do NOT need glasses anymore....because I have cataracts.!!! I never heard of such a thing. Cataracts improving my vision. at least until I need the surgery.
these days cataract surgery is ease. Make sur e the Doc gets a good night sleep.
good luck
