I’m maybe a year away from needing a replacement lens m’self.

It's no longer considered necessary for the cataracts to "ripen"....when I learned that from wifey's surgeon, I immediately got my peepers repaired also....20/20 is great, but we went with the type of implant that still requires reading glasses - due to a higher incidence of complications with the total correction lenses.

Thanks. Mine isn’t yet interfering with my vision.

Absolutely. I had an excellent surgeon, who told me that he’d do the cataract operation whenever I decided I wanted it.

I waited a while, then went ahead when I needed better vision for a drivers’ license renewal. Total success, no regrets!
