I'm not a fan of elective surgery, ever. Things happen and you're talking about your eyes.

The multi-focals let in up to 20% less light and can cause halo / starbursts and fuzz around lights at night. I didn't like the sound of that at all. Most patients do fine with IOLs, but the ones who have complaints almost all had multi-vocals.
Also, the adaptation from distance to reading is almost never what the patient hoped for it seems.
The procedure also drastically increases your risk of retinal detachment.

If it was me, if I was electively looking to ditch corrective glasses or contacts, I'd go lasix way before I'd get into the lens. Of course if you have a lens problem, that's not relevant. I went with monofocals when I NEEDED to have IOL's implanted. Happy so far.
