cataract extraction
This is a fancy way to say cataract surgery. We say “extraction” because the cataract lens is removed from the eye during surgery. See cataract surgery for more details on the actual procedure.

I just had my 2nd cataract extraction. The first time I was told I wouldn’t be able to see close up and would require reader glasses. Well, I have both close up vision and d istance in that eye, and it was the standard lens. I am not sure why. I just did the 2nd eye, and the vision isn’t as clear but it’s only been a day, so I am hoping the vision improves like the other eye did. Is this a common occurence?
