09:37 <dazinism> Heard talk that the lenses used to replace the lenses in your eyes, if you have cataracts, are getting good enough to give 20:20 vision for the rest of your life.

09:38 <dazinism> Also saw something on TV news a couple of years back suggesting people, without cataracts, were starting to have this kind of surgery done to improve poor eyesight

09:40 <dazinism> Apparently, theres a few different technologies for these replacement lenses that provide the ability to focus at different ranges

13:27 <sixwheeledbeast> the lens is only part of the story tho. if your short sighted you can adapt your eye with surgery (laser/replacement etc) but the tiredness of the muscles from aging causing "longsightedness" and issues reading, I don't believe anything can be done there.
