Prayers for successful outcome. Will she do the opposite focus thing?

I don't think so.  I have the fixed focus on mine and she was familiar with that.  She, like me want's both eyes to behave the same so reading glasses are in her future.  We both have an astigmatism and have to wear glasses anyway even after the surgery.  It's not like we haven't been wearing them all of our lives already.

Yeah, either way you wind up wearing glasses. My wife did the separate focal points. So her glasses compensate- one lens for distance, the other for reading.

They make implants for astigmatism.  And regarding the mono vision idea... if you decide on that make sure she can deal with the disparity between the eyes.  Not everyone can. And for those who can’t, it sucks.

Expensive as hell here.  

When I said mono I meant fixed focus far field for both eyes.  Reading glasses for near field.
