Brief Answer:
residual correction can be done by specs.
Detailed Answer:
The required correction can be done by specs. Now that operation is over and IOL correction is by mono vision lens, residual correction can be done by specs. It should not make any problem. Your BP problem is not related to cataract surgery directly. But you are probably having anxiety neurosis. Your hypertention is aggravated due to anxiety. You have become apprehensive about complication. It can be managed by treatment. Need not worry for either of the problem. Both can be managed. Lead a normal life. Leave it to be managed by doctors. Have faith in them.
