Hello lybrate-user.
Usually when the cataract matures. It makes it easy to read without glasses but it does not mean that your eye sight is improving. It means the lens visual field is narrowing.
And it is obvious to have some numbers depending on the lens used.
If you have used simple lense then you may have nubers.
More advanced lenses may have been better.

A cataract is a clouding of the normally clear lens of your eye. For people who have cataracts, seeing through cloudy lenses is a bit like looking through a frosty or fogged-up window.
Clouded vision caused by cataracts can make it more difficult to read, drive a car (especially at night) or see the expression on a friend's face.
Most cataracts develop slowly and don't disturb your eyesight early on. But with time, cataracts will eventually interfere with your vision.
