Cataract Surgery
A cataract is a clouding of the lens of the eye that causes blurry or dim vision. Cataracts (video courtesy of National Eye Institute) are one of the most common causes of vision loss (especially as we age) but are surgically treatable. Surgery is the only treatment option for cataracts—they are not preventable or treatable with medication.
Cataracts tend to develop slowly and don’t affect people until their 40s or 50s. Changes to vision may be unnoticeable at first, but as cataracts worsen, they can start to interfere with daily activities.
Patients experiencing symptoms of vision loss or changes should make an appointment with an ophthalmologist. Learn more about cataract surgery with our FAQs and view our cataract informed consent.
Advanced Technology Lenses
Advanced technology lenses may provide an improved range of vision for patients who need cataract surgery, hopefully reducing the need for glasses after surgery. Intraocular lens (IOL) implants provide a broader range of focus after cataract surgery. After the cataract is removed, the IOL implant is permanently placed in the eye.
Toric Lens Implant
A patient with a significant level of astigmatism and cataracts may be a candidate for a toric lens implant. The toric lens implant is designed to reduce or eliminate astigmatism as a part of cataract surgery. Learn more.
Presbyopia Correcting Lens
Presbyopia Correcting Lenses are a premium option that may reduce a patient’s dependence on glasses at a range of distances and for a variety of activities, including using the computer, reading, dining, cooking and driving. Learn more.
