Hello Bill,
My wife had lasik 2 years ago, and as is typical for the over 40 crowd, was given mono vision. She loves not having to use glasses or contact lenses, and had no difficulty adjusting. The dominant eye is set for distance, and the non-dominant for reading. There is also a mini-mono, which sets the non dominant eye for intermediate distance, and glasses for reading. I have recently had cataract surgery on both eyes, and have mono vision lenses. Most people can adjust within a couple of weeks. I guess your Physician is simply saying that should you not adjust, it can be corrected. Well, that's my 2 cents worth.
