What is Cataract Surgery?

Cataract surgery is a procedure to remove the lens of your eye and, in most cases, replace it with an artificial lens. Cataract surgery is used to treat the clouding of the normally clear lens of your eye (cataract).

Cataract surgery is performed by an eye doctor (ophthalmologist) on an outpatient basis, which means you don't have to stay in the hospital after the surgery. Cataract surgery is very common and is generally a safe procedure.

Cataract Surgery Types

Intracapsular surgery: This uncommon procedure involves removing the entire lens structure, which consists of the cortex, nucleus, and capsule. When the lens of the eye is dislocated, this specific type is used.

Extracapsular surgery: To remove the cloudy centre of the eye's lens, a lengthy incision is produced on the side of the cornea. After that, the remaining lens is sucked out.

The procedure that is currently most frequently used is phacoemulsification. Through a tiny incision, a sensor is inserted inside the cornea. This device then transmits ultrasound that’s fully accountable for the softening as well as breaking of a lens slated to be eliminated by suction.

Why do you Need this Eye Surgery?
