Monofocal IOL set for Plano question

Posted , 9 users are following.

I have one "good" eye and am having an IOL implanted in my dominant right eye. I am reading too much I think, and having anxiety around the single implant and how that will affect contrast if I choose Vivity. I have a myopic left with focus at about 10-12" but the cataract right doesn't focus until about 18-20". how will that change if I go with a mono lens for Plano? Where will I see the drop off? I have read it's anywhere from 2m and closer maybe a timy bit closer, but my doc told me I'd notice a drop off at about 3m (10ft). I want crisp clear vision and ok with readers, but worried about the contrast with a single vivity and the drop-off of a mono.

Thank you
