Yes, I was having the blooming lights problem and can already see a
difference in my left eye.  Car headlights are small and distinct instead
of a huge bloom of light.  Less contrast with the cataracts, yes.  And an
overall yellow cast.  All of that seems to be much better in my left eye
with the new lens.  Distance vision is much better - I can see the leaves
on the trees!   I'm supposed to wait several months for the eye to settle
down before deciding whether I need glasses or not but I can already see a
big difference.  Next step will be to re- calibrate my monitor.
