Hello everyone,
I am looking for comment from listers who have had or know
about cataract surgery outcomes and any effects on birdwatching capacity. I
currently have excellent vision for my age but affected by cataracts. With the
modern approach the natural lens is replaced by an artificial lens (bifocal or
trifocal) and outcomes are good apparently. My main concern is will I retain
good vision for birding, continue to be able to use the same binoculars and
telescope. Any experience out there??

Even though I was quite short sighted, I always used binoculars without
my glasses.
My "cataract" lenses are slightly short sighted so I use glasses for
driving, and I have reading glasses spotted around the house. No worries
with binoculars, but LCD viewfinders on digital cameras are a pest as I
need reading glasses to use them!
