Yeah I had that done on one eye last July and was SUPPOSED to have had
the other done in late August but they found stuff they didn't expect
(mostly calcification) and it's now late March and I'm still waiting.

It's effectively like having two eyes each with a different
prescription - I can drive but have to be careful or at least more so
than usual. If I couldn't I'd likely go utterly bonkers.

Much the same with me. The only thing that saved me from coke-bottle glasses is better materials to make lenses from. As it is the operation went well, the check-up today didn't reveal any immediate problems, I have 20/20 in that eye now and have a mid-April date for the operation on the other eye. But I am/was so massively short-sighted that trying to use both eyes now gives me a splitting headache, so I'm wearing an eye-patch until then.

Did you get a lens with the 20/20 prescription in it?
What lens are you talking about? The one in my glasses frame or the one implanted in my eye? The one in my eye doesn't have a "prescription" like framed external lenses and I have not had a lens in the external frame removed or changed. My left eye, without any eye glasses prescription, has 20/20 vision according to the eye test that was part of my post-op followup.
