A cataract is a lens opacity that can be congenital or develop over time. A cataract is a clouding of your eye’s lens that either prevents or alters the transmission of light into the eye. Proteins in your lens degrade, making objects appear fuzzy, foggy, or less colorful. The lens of the eye is generally translucent and is placed behind the pupil and colorful iris. The lens aids in the focusing of images onto the retina, which then transfers them to the brain. This article will help you understand the Cataract Surgery Cost in Mumbai.
Modern cataract surgery involves removing the cloudy lens from your eye and replacing it with an artificial one (called an IOL or intraocular lens) to restore clear vision. The surgeon uses a high-frequency ultrasound to break up the cloudy lenses into smaller pieces. The surgeon then uses suction to gently remove the pieces. After removing all pieces, the surgeon secures the intraocular lens in place behind the pupil and iris. This is the same position that the natural lens was. This is known as phacoemulsification, or phaco.
