According to the "pointing finger" test, my right eye is dominant, but I
have always used my left eye to focus the camera.  I have no idea why.
That's why I had the left eye done first and for distance.

I will try to observe closely for the next month.  The doctor said he would
not prescribe glasses for at least a month after cataract surgery, anyway,
to give the eyes a chance to settle down.  I will still be putting drops in
my eyes for two months.

Thanks!!

Tina
