Cataract
  • Cataract surgery is a procedure to remove the
    lens of the affected eye and is replaced, in most
    cases, by an artificial lens known as an
    intraocular lens (IOL).
  • Cataract surgery is done on an outpatient basis
    by an eye doctor (ophthalmologist), ensuring you
    don't have to stay in the hospital after the
    surgery.
  • It is very normal to undergo cataract surgery
    and is usually a successful operation.

Cataract
  • The use of a high-frequency ultrasound system
    that breaks up the cloudy lens into small parts
    includes most modern cataract processes, which
    are then gently withdrawn from the eye with the
    aid of suction.
  • This procedure is referred to as
    phacoemulsification or 'phaco,' and can be done
    with smaller incisions than previous cataract
    removal surgical procedures, encouraging faster
    healing and reducing the risk of complications
    such as glaucoma, preventable blindness, impaired
    vision immobility, etc.
