Phacoemulsification (Cataract Surgery)

Phacoemulsification is an advanced cataract surgery technique used to remove the cloudy natural lens of the eye and replace it with a clear artificial intraocular lens (IOL). This helps restore sharp and clear vision.

The procedure is minimally invasive and performed using ultrasound technology. It is quick, safe, and allows faster healing compared to traditional cataract surgery methods.

Phacoemulsification (Cataract Surgery) FAQs

Important information about cataract surgery, recovery, and outcomes.

It is a modern cataract removal technique where ultrasound waves break the cloudy lens into small pieces, which are then removed and replaced with a clear artificial lens.

The procedure is generally painless as numbing drops are used. Patients may feel slight pressure, but no significant pain during surgery.

Most patients notice improvement within a few days, while complete healing may take a few weeks. Following post-surgery care is important for best results.

Surgery is recommended when cataracts start affecting daily activities like reading, driving, or recognizing faces clearly.

The artificial lens remains for life and does not develop cataract again, providing long-term clear vision.

Avoid rubbing the eyes, follow medication instructions, protect eyes from dust, and attend follow-up visits for smooth recovery.
