Post-LASIK, post-FOV vitrectomy cataract surgery options (Italian surgeons recommendations welcome!)

M 43

Hey all - I am landing on this sub after undergoing LASIK in 2017 and immediately after a FOV vitrectomy in both eyes in 2018. Both my eyes soon developed posterior polar cataracts and now vision in my dominant right eye has deteriorated to the point of needing to collect info for a cataract surgery. Currently my left eye is overcompensating, but since it also has a cataract, I am afraid of having to find a solution quickly.

I already suffer from starbursts (day and night) and halos around lights due to LASIK, so I understand I may not be a suitable candidate for multifocal lenses.

I'll have my second consultation with the eye doctor in June so in the meantime I am doing some research.

I spend a lot of time gaming and in front of a computer for work, so intermediate vision is paramount.

It would seem that a PureSee EDOF could be an option but I would appreciate some positive outcomes, stories or recommendations (especially if you're in Italy or know of good Italian surgeons).
Thank you!
