Modern cataract surgery corrects vision by the use of a lens implant and if the power is calculated correctly, and the surgery is performed without complication there is no need for a contact lens.

Contact lenses: Contact lenses can be worn just like before cataract surgery without a problem. The surgery does not affect this at all. Give your eye doctor a call and get a contact lens fit.

Cataract surgery: You should not need contact lenses after cataract surgery. The surgery and new implants should replace the need for contacts after the surgery. If needed, you can be refitted with the same make and model of contacts with the new power if needed.
