CATARACT SURGERY
What is cataract?
A cataract is a clouding of the normally clear lens of your eye. Clouded vision caused by cataracts can make it more difficult to drive a car (especially at night), read or to see clearly. Most cataracts develop slowly and don’t disturb your eyesight early on! Some of the risk factors that increase your risk of cataracts include
Femtosecond Laser – Cataract Surgery (next generation of cataract surgery) Femtosecond Laser is a needle-free and blade-free surgery for you.
The laser allows your surgeon to plan and perform a procedure that’s completely customized for each of your eyes. Imagine a device which can create a 3-dimensional micron level scan of your eye and then dissolve your cataract in 10 seconds without making a cut into the surface of the eye. No-needles, no-blades just perfect precision surgery.
The natural lens (lens) that has lost its function in both operation methods is taken out from the eye and an artificial intraocular lens (lens) will be placed in.
How To Choose The Best IOL For Your Cataract Surgery
There is no single option that is best for all patients. You must consider your hobbies, activities, lifestyle, work-related tasks, etc. to decide which lens is best for you.
Monofocal IOLs
Most cataract patients choose monofocal IOLs that allow them to focus on things at a distance and use reading glasses when needed. Bifocal IOLs are divided into two distinct segments for different vision powers, the first for distance vision and the second for near vision.
Trifocal IOLs
Trifocals, also known as lined trifocals, feature three areas of focusing power, each separated from the other with a vivid line. The three windows allow for focusing on distant objects, intermediately distanced objects, and for up close.
EDOF IOLs (extended depth of focus)
Extended Depth of Focus IOL addresses presbyopia and delivering a full range of continuous vision.
TORIC IOL
lenses used at the time of cataract surgery to decrease post-operative astigmatism.
