"I knew there was something wrong with my eyes when I went up to the mall, and everybody's face was fuzzy."
Lois's cataracts particularly affected her ability to see colors. On outings with an artist friend, her friend would ask her if she saw all the different colors in the trees and mountains. Not wanting to hurt her friend's feelings, Lois simply nodded in agreement-but she saw no difference. After surgery, she sees deep greens and light grays, subtle variations in the color of everything. And now when shopping, she's especially happy that she doesn't have to switch between multiple pairs of glasses to read the price tags.
* Lois had AcrySof® ReSTOR® multifocal lenses implanted in both eyes. In FDA trials, four out of five patients who received the AcrySof® ReSTOR® multifocal lens in both eyes reported never needing to wear glasses.
