First thing is to check with your doctor &/or health-plan; I believe that cataract surgery is covered by medicare & the "needed" corrective lens is also covered (use it only after both eyes had surgery, since it is a only one for lifetime "benefit").

Having said that, after cataract surgery, the corrective/reading glasses will work quite well for reading on a Nexus 7 (2013) which I do; the Nexus 7's 1920x1080 is better than the 1080x800 on some tablets even if they are also very readable with reading glasses.

I had given up on the mass paperbacks but with reading glasses, even they were easily readable. My Nook 1st gen was OK but the Nexus 7 is my preference & have "decommissioned" the Nook 1st gen.

I don't use the Kindle app on the Nexus 7 so don't know what adjustments or accommodations are available (most likely very limited like on the Kindle Fire HDX). Aldiko, Moon Reader & Mantano are able to have different lighting, fonts & backgrounds to enhance the legibility for different environments; my subjective observations.
