Actually, the colors have nothing to do with your glasses, but are a result of your new lenses giving you the vision that you had when you were young and had no cloudy cataracts. I had mine done a few years ago and was surprised at how colorful the world was once again!

It really makes me wonder if messages posted on this forum are actually being read, or if guesses are made as to what OP said....
Yes, before the surgery everything had a yellowish cast, which I really noticed after the first eye was done and before the second eye was done. Having the second eye done was the equalizer, and looking at things without glasses, I very much enjoyed just looking at the colours.
However, I will repeat: the colours I see have
everything to do with my glasses! When I have my glasses on, meaning that I look through the glasses, everything I look at has a yellowish cast, which is especially noticeable in whites and blues.
When I take my glasses off, meaning there is nothing between my eyes and the items I am looking at, the yellowish cast is gone and the colours are once again the way they used to be many, many moons ago.
Now tell me again that what I'm seeing through my glasses has nothing to do with those glasses.... actually don't, because you would be wrong!
Unfortunately, I need my glasses for reading and computer work and also still a minor correction for distance.
When we come back from our holidays I will be doing some testing to find out if seeing this yellowish cast will make a difference to colour-correction or white-balance tweaking of my photos. I won't have time before we go away now.
