Cataracts occur when the lens in your eye becomes cloudy from natural proteins that build up over time. Most cataracts develop slowly over time, causing symptoms such as blurry vision. The good news is that Cataract can be easily removed by surgery which is a very safe surgical procedure.

• The timing is decided by the patient’s visual needs. A cataract needs to be removed only if it affects one’s vision so much that it interferes with one’s daily activities. Patient makes that decision himself. If you have cataracts in both eyes, the operation on the two eyes is performed preferably in an interval of one week.
• MICROINCISIONAL CATARACT SURGERY WITH ADVANCED PHACO MACHINE:

In phaco surgery , the doctor uses a hand-held instrument with a metal or diamond blade to create an incision. Incision in the eye is helpful for the surgeon to access and break up the cataract in the interior of the eye which is also called natural lens. The next step is inserting the IOL inside and implant it at the place of natural lens.
