Information About Cataracts Services

Cataracts develop when the proteins that make up the eye's natural lens start to degrade, which causes the lens to cloud and leads to blurry vision.

Traditional cataract surgery utilizes fine, handheld tools to create precise incisions and remove the cataract lens.

Utilizing state-of-the-art technology, refractive laser cataract surgery removes a clouded, damaged lens and fixes astigmatism.

YAG capsulotomy is performed if the capsule that holds the lens in place becomes clouded after the patient has received cataract removal surgery.

During cataract surgery, an artificial intraocular lens (IOL) is used to replace a natural lens that has developed a cataract and needs to be removed.
