I recently had symphony lens' in both eyes  - operations were 2 weeks apart with the second being 5 days ago. My reading vision is fine but starts to go into soft focus looking across the room and beyond. Walking down the street - most things are out of focus so driving is not possible. The surgeon made adjustments to the calculations after the first eye to give the second greater distance but it  seems about the same. The surgeon said I had vey small eyes and so maybe that is why the refraction is out. I also had this procedure duet to closed angle glaucoma rate than cataract.

Has anyone else had this outcome and did it rectify itself as I appreciate it is still early days - or did you have further procedures?

    I would guess you may have ended up a bit nearsighted from the target, though that can get better over the coming weeks - vision should be stable after a couple months after you can stop the Rx eyedrops.
