It's a fairly trivial routine operation. The surgeon who did my

Yep, its local anthestic a day hospital job in many parts of the less
developed world. Do one eye, come back next week/month get the other eye
done... I suspect this is a very basic "cure" popping out the old cloudy
lens and popping in a rigid standard replacement. You then get glasses to
"match" the new lenses to your eyes.
I wouldn't be surprised if more advanced treatment allow for the
replacement lens to be matched to the eye and be flexable so you still
have variable focus.
