Take my word for it, DON'T opt for mono-vision implants.

It was my Ophthalmologist that recommended the use of "cheaters" vs prescription readers. He's facility at the U of Pittsburgh School of Med.
Usually have half a dozen pair spread out between home office car/truck and in my pocket...............

I got the mono vision setup and personally I love it. Got my right eye done first and it is set up for 20-20. Left eye is set for 20-25 and I can focus on front sight of revolver, read a paper, menu etc with it. Never notice anything outside. Sometimes reading or some I will block left eye with coffee cup or something and p-aper blurs out. Only time I wear anything other than safety glasses is when I am going to do a bunch of reading or fine work. Eye Dr set me up with work space glasses. Clear vision with both eyes at about 10-15 ft and small high mag bifocals for close up vision for fine detail.
Why my left eye instead of my right for short range? Well, my right eye had gotten so bad I had switched to my left eye some time ago for handgun shooting and it works and had become habit. Plus, I never really thought about it until right eye was done and wouldn't focus on front sight. Talked to my Surgeon who was very helpful. Only long guns I have without scopes are my S&W 45 cal revolving carbine and an old Stevens 22 Crackshot
I had my second eye done shortly before hunting season and my surgeon assured me I could shoot high powered rifles after 1 month checkup
