The human Eye has a transparent lens called the Crystalline that helps focus to see near and far. Cataract is the partial or total opacity of the lens. Clouding causes light to scatter inside the eye and prevents focusing, creating fuzzy images. It is the most common cause of blindness treatable with surgery.
In the procedure, the cataract is removed and replaced by an intraocular lens that offers clearer vision.
Cataract surgery can be done at any point in the development of the cataract as long as it affects the quality of life. It is an outpatient surgery and uses local anesthesia. The vast majority of patients achieve proper or better-corrected vision after surgery. The procedure takes 20 minutes, it does not hurt.
We use the latest technology and offer laser-assisted procedure, which helps our surgeons break the cataract into fragments, making it easier to remove the cataract, which offers a more precise and safe result, and the recovery is faster. Also, this laser helps to eliminate low astigmatisms, helping a better vision.
