How much time between cataract surgeries

@celia16 , my preference would be to find a ophthalmologist that has extensive experience (dozens if not hundreds) of procedures with the newest laser technology that does not use a knife. It can breakup and dispose of the old lens and matches edge work after the new lens has been installed. It also will after some time take care of small imperfections, smoothing out the new lens.
My two surgeries result have been phenomenal.

I agree with you about finding an ophthalmologist who uses the newest laser technology. I have only one good eye and didn’t want any risk I didn’t have to take. Yes, it cost more than what my insurance would pay, but my eye’s recovery was very fast. The results were so good that I decided that it couldn’t hurt to have the bad eye done a month later. And it helped that eye too. As my surgeon said about my bad eye, “ I can’t make it good, but I can make it better. “
