Bad lenses are rare, out of the box. But after 40, if that's her
demographic, near vision with contacts is pretty fragile and seldom great at
the best of times.

It might be she depends on just one eye to read and one bad lens could be
causing all this trouble. They won't refund on an open box so it only makes
sense to try another pair, or another "near" lens if that's how she does it.

It's only cataract if glasses are blurry too. Does she remember where her
glasses are?

No, she had not. I suggested she put back in her previous pair, but
they had already been tossed. I did check the package markings and
they were consistent with what was on the box. She had also tried
swapping L<> R lenses with no improvement.

Cataracts don't change overnight.

Did your SO try another pair?

My SO has known she will have to deal with a cataract in her right eye
sooner or later. She already wears contacts of the 30day type.
Yesterday she was able to read a book and see clearly with no
problems. Today she changed her contacts and everything was out of
focus, blurry. She went in to see her eye doc and was told she would
have to go for cataract surgery to correct this problem. She was
surprised about the sudden abrupt change in vision and was wondering
if this is what really happens.

Thanks for your input
