There seem to be 3 newer styles of lenses for cataract

Crystalens, ReZoom and ReStor all help to restore near

Do your research before getting any of these. Crystallens only accommodates
up to about 1.5 diopters, so if your current cheaters are more than that,
they won't have the range you need for near vision (assuming far vision is
properly corrected).

Basically, these are version 1 of the accommodating intraocular lenses. Wait
until they work through the problems, and refine the designs.
