Cataract Surgery: What to expect after surgery

It's been over 1 week and still blurry, but will wait to see what doctor says on next appointment. My other eye that will be done in September I have floaters. What confused me was the doctor asked how I wanted to see, far away, close up, or medium. I didn't know what to say since I didn't know they asked that question so I just said medium. When done and hubby picked me up I asked him when he had that if they asked that question and he said no, but he had his surgery years, and years ago.

@dablues I think the questions the doctor asked were for trying to figure out which Intraocular Cataract Lenses (IOL) would work best for you -- IOLs: Choosing the best implant for cataract surgery: https://www.allaboutvision.com/conditions/iols.htm

I also read an interesting story I think might add some perspective for anyone considering cataract surgery -- Vision after cataract surgery, from a surgeon's perspective: https://www.allaboutvision.com/conditions/cataract-surgery-experience.htm

Hoping your blurriness goes away soon!
