LDHunter,
After cataract surgery my left eye went to 20/15 and my right eye went to 20/20. Afterward I had an eye test and discovered I could improve on that with a little prescription so I went with it. I wear glasses all the time except when I hunt. They fog up when I hike so I go without and see very well anyway.
Now there are some lenses that work with your muscles so you don't need reading glasses! Outrageous.
Here's a lesson I learned. If you rely on any type of corrective lenses then your eyes quickly become dependent on them. The doctor that did my lasik hinted at that.
17 years post lasik and I still refuse to use reading glasses and I'm a good bit past 60. It is a really rare situation when I need any sort of magnification for close up work because my eyes are used to working hard to see at any distance I ask them to.
I think we all rely on our doctors and ophthalmologists way too much while forgetting that just like everyone else they're businessmen that need the money too and will merrily guide you down the path that profits them.
