Cataract Surgery: Improving Vision & Lifestyle

The dawn of modern intraocular lenses and advances in instrument technology have given rise to more choice and accurate post operative results.

Cataract surgery is no longer performed purely for medical reasons, but in addition it can now offer patients with the choice of reducing the need for glasses for both distance and near – a choice once only limited to those willing to undergo Laser Eye Surgery. Cataract surgery has become sutureless, microsurgery with a relatively short recovery period and results so accurate people often have reduced need to rely on for visual hardware post-op.

Patients are no longer waiting for cataracts to debilitate them but having treatment earlier for lifestyle reasons. As life expectancy increases Cataract surgery has allowed patients to remain active for longer.
