Laser Cataract Surgery: A Cutting-Edge Solution
Laser
cataract surgery is a revolutionary technique that has transformed the way
cataracts are treated. It involves using advanced laser technology to remove
cataracts and restore clear vision. At Bharti Eye Foundation, our
experienced team of ophthalmologists utilizes the latest equipment and
techniques to ensure optimal outcomes for our patients.
The Laser Cataract Surgery Procedure Step by Step
Pre-operative Evaluation: Before the surgery, our team will conduct a comprehensive evaluation of your eye health to determine the best course of action. This evaluation may include measurements of your eye's shape and size, as well as assessing your overall health and any pre-existing eye conditions.
Anesthesia: During the procedure, local anesthesia will be administered to ensure your comfort. The anesthesia will numb the eye, eliminating any pain or discomfort.
Creating an Incision: A tiny incision will be made in the cornea to gain access to the cataract-affected lens.
Capsulotomy: Using the precision of laser technology, a circular opening will be made in the front part of the lens capsule. This step is crucial as it allows access to the cataract-affected lens while leaving the posterior capsule intact.
Lens Fragmentation: The laser will then be used to break up the cloudy cataract-affected lens into smaller, more manageable pieces. This fragmentation process ensures easier removal of the lens during the subsequent steps.
Lens Removal: The fragmented lens is gently suctioned out through the incision made earlier. This step may involve the use of a specialized instrument or an advanced technology called phacoemulsification, which uses ultrasound waves to break up and remove the lens.
Intraocular Lens (IOL) Placement: Once the cataract-affected lens is removed, an artificial intraocular lens (IOL) will be carefully inserted into the same position. The IOL serves as a permanent replacement for the natural lens, restoring clear vision.
Closing the Incision: The incision is closed, often without the need for sutures, as the self-sealing nature of the cornea allows for a speedy recovery.
Post-operative Care: After the surgery, you will be provided with detailed instructions on post-operative care. This may include using prescribed eye drops, avoiding strenuous activities, and attending follow-up appointments to monitor your progress.
