Optomalogist: Would check on standard over the counter reading glasses. If you vision is better, good. If not see your Optomalogist.

Computer glasses: The term computer glasses is used to refer to glasses that bring things into focus (sharp vision) that are not at reading distance, but slightly farther away. It turns out that reading distance for a book etc. is shorter than where the computer screen is typically. The cataract and pucker may not have much to do with the problem of see in
