Case

A 56-year-old male warehouse worker was referred for treatment of early cataract, presbyopia, and hyperopia. The patient stated a reliance on reading glasses for near-vision activities. However, the patient reported dissatisfaction with wearing progressive glasses and previous contact lens intolerance. Additionally, he reported dissatisfaction with nighttime vision, including driving, and difficulty with hobbies, including motorcycling and photography. His past medical history was notable for psoriasis, though he was not taking any systemic medications. The past ocular history was also unremarkable, and he reported no ocular pain or discomfort at the time of presentation.
