Cataract Surgery Procedure
Cataract surgery involves removing the cloudy natural lens and replacing it with a clear intraocular lens.
The procedure generally takes less than 30 minutes and most patients return home the same day.
Vision often begins improving within days as the eye heals.
Intraocular Lens Options
Different intraocular lenses can address different vision needs.
Monofocal Lenses
Provide clear vision at one primary distance.
Toric Lenses
Correct astigmatism.
Extended Depth-of-Focus Lenses
Provide a broader range of vision.
Light Adjustable Lens (RxSight)
The Light Adjustable Lens allows postoperative customization. After cataract surgery, a series of light treatments can adjust the lens power to refine the final visual result.
This technology allows vision correction to be optimized after surgery rather than determined entirely beforehand.
