Will I Need Glasses After Cataract Surgery?

Whether you’ll need glasses after cataract surgery depends on the type of intraocular lens (IOL) you choose and your individual vision needs. Standard monofocal lenses correct vision at a single distance, so you may still need glasses for reading or other close-up tasks. Premium lenses, such as multifocal or accommodating IOLs, can reduce or eliminate the need for glasses by correcting both near and distance vision. Toric lenses are an option if you have astigmatism, addressing vision issues more comprehensively.

While cataract surgery significantly improves vision, some patients may still require glasses for certain activities, such as detailed work or driving at night. Discuss your lifestyle and vision goals with your eye surgeon to select the best lens option for you.
