For the first time EVER my glasses made the display of our CAI 302DDV black
out on Sunday. No artifacts at all on the pda, radio, or canopy. Just a black
ring around the needle. Never happened before.

I suspect I can blame you all for bringing it up. ; )

It's not fair to blame us. This is clearly *your* fault for letting your
equipment read RAS. It puts ideas into their heads....

There seem to be 3 newer styles of lenses for cataract
surgery.
Crystalens, ReZoom and ReStor all help to restore near
and far vision. The ReZoom and ReStore lenses have
a limitation for commercial and private pilots but
the Crystalens doesn't seem to have this. Any recommendations?

Revo 2037
Blue freq. suppression.
polarized.

maybe I can just give the DDV lens a little twist.

I will definitely be looking at non-polar lenses for some variety.

Nah. Just tilt your head to one side or the other till it clears up.
Then, make a neck brace that induces a permanent tilt to your head.

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.
