Mostly wondering if a trifocal contact lens would mimic a trifocal cataract lens as a test to see if I liked the concept before committing to the (irreversable) cataract lens.
My current situation is I have a monofocal lens implanted in my left eye years ago but just now needing a lens in the right eye. In a way I have the best of both worlds as I can see 20/20 long distance in left eye (but need reading glasses for close up) and excellent close up vision in right eye (but terrible long distance vision)...so it's tempting to just get a clear lens in the right eye and keep the status quo. Still, might be even better with trifocal in right eye but need to test out the concept first. Thoughts ?
