Cataracts Question

Hi guys, so I've done some searching and see we've had several threads about cataract surgeries, covering a wide range of topics and issues. My question seeks to focus on one issue in particular.

Roughly how long does it take for the repaired eye to recuperate to the point of usefulness? On average.

I ask because the surgeon has chosen to do the right eye first which means the left eye has to do all the work until the repaired right eye is back up to snuff. Problem is the left eye is so bad it will not be up to the task. If recuperation time is only a day or two I can hunker down using just that lame left eye for that long. But longer than that is very unnerving in my POV.
