Just a note for anyone getting older: when you get your cataract surgery, when they insert the new lens into your eye, they can make that lens a prescription lens. And one thing you might consider doing is requesting that one lens be made slightly long-distance and the other slightly near-distance.
You can do that before cataracts. They’re called Implantable Collamer Lenses. I got ICL surgery* done because my astigmatism is so bad I can’t do laser.

Thanks for that.
Not everyone gets cataracts
What would be the point of implanting a “lens” with no optical power?
I think what you’re trying to say is that the implanted lens can be varifocal rather than monofocal.
