You can choose hydrophobic acrylic unifocal lens if you don't have reservations about glasses. Multifocal lens ,trifocal lens are options if you don't want to wear glasses after surgery.

The cataract surgery has wide range of pricing depending on the geographical location and type of hospital private or charitable. Monofocal will improve vision but will need reading or near vision glasses. Multifocal can eliminate use of glasses mostly but there will be some trade- offs and patient suitability has to be evaluated. Best person to guide will be your treating doctor.
