What is cataract?

A cataract is a common eye condition that causes clouding of the eye’s natural lens, leading to blurred vision and difficulty seeing clearly. It often develops gradually with age but can also be caused by factors like genetics, trauma, or certain medical conditions. Cataracts can affect daily activities like reading, driving, and recognizing faces.

Fortunately, our advanced cataract surgery is a safe and effective treatment option, where the cloudy lens is removed and replaced with a clear artificial lens. With proper care, individuals can regain clear vision and improve their quality of life.

  • Blurred or cloudy vision
  • Difficulty seeing at night
  • Sensitivity to light

What causes cataracts?

  • Aging: Primary factor, proteins break down in the lens over time, leading to cloudiness.
  • Sunlight: Prolonged exposure contributes to cataract development.
  • Smoking: Increases oxidative stress in the eye, accelerating lens damage and cataract formation.
  • Diabetes: High blood sugar levels promote cataract formation by altering the lens structure.
  • Certain medications: Corticosteroids and other drugs can cause cataracts as a side effect over time.
  • Eye injuries or surgeries: Trauma to eye can lead to cataracts.
  • Genetic predisposition: Family history may predispose to cataract formation.

How is advanced cataract surgery performed?

Cataract surgery is a common procedure performed to remove the cloudy lens and replace it with an artificial lens, called an intraocular lens (IOL). It’s usually done as an outpatient procedure under local anesthesia.

The surgeon makes a tiny incision in the eye and uses ultrasound energy to break up the cloudy lens into small pieces, which are then gently suctioned out. The IOL is then inserted into the eye, where it unfolds and replaces the natural lens.

The incision is self-sealing and typically does not require stitches. Patients can usually resume normal activities shortly after surgery. Our advanced cataract surgery is a safe and effective treatment option.
