Hello Dutchmanmichiel!
I never had any pain from MDFD. I had days that when I woke up everything was blurry, which made driving and working not easy. The issues from astigmatism and loss of peripheral vision happened over time and I almost didn't notice. Except my eye doctors were aware of the changes.
I would recommend getting a cheap pair of single distance vision glasses until your eyes heal . That gives you something so you can do things.
The time to heal, eye pain and constant changing vision all happened after cataract surgery.
I also asked about the MDFD coming back and was told that there was a small chance and smaller chance since I am older.
