Smile Interlocular lenses

Athough not in the flying business I still work and my vision was pretty poor .I had glasses with progressive lenses for long and short sight but even this was becoming of little use.Last month I took the plunge and had interlocular lenses fitted.I cannot tell you really what a difference this has made!!Apart from having the ability to see near and far all in focus my world of colour has come back(cataracts in both eyes).I have to go back in two months for a check up.The procedure was done with only eye drops and I could see all that went on ,it really was no bother and only slightly uncomfortable as irrigating water was dropped in.
I recommend this for anyone with eye problems.Had it done in Thailand at my local international hospital .
