I had cataracts removed and implants put in their place.?

By mid September it will be 6 months since I had cataracts removed and implants put in. Almost at once I could see perfectly at a distance. However, I cannot read the morning paper without "cheaters" of the power of 1.25. I can't even sign a check without the cheaters. Doctors said by 6 months the healing process would be finished. I really wanted vision without glasses or contacts. Can they still improve beyond the 6 month healing time?

    Unless you had special bifocal or accommodating implants put in, you will not be able to read without glasses after cataract surgery.
