I replied off line to the original post.   I had cataract surgery on both
eyes and lens replaced.  Perfect vision and can read computer screen and
anything printed on good quality paper. Newsprint or anything using paper
where the ink has a furry edge to the print is difficult. No trouble with
digital SLR.  Optometrist suggested a bifocal reading glasses if I spent
more than  an hour a day reading or computer. 40 cm focus on bottom part for
reading and 60 cm focus on upper part of lens for computer work. No problem
with binoculars or telescope.  With multi focal lens implanted, surgeon
stated that there would be a slight loss of clarity so I decided against
them.

If anyone wants further information they may contact me off line.
