Cataract (Femto Laser Assisted)
Cataract (Femto Laser Assisted)
A cataract occurs when the natural lens in the eye becomes cloudy, often due to aging, and affects vision. It’s one of the leading causes of vision impairment worldwide, causing symptoms like blurred vision, difficulty with night vision, glare, and faded colors. Traditional cataract surgery involves manually making tiny incisions in the cornea to access and remove the cloudy lens, which is then replaced with an artificial intraocular lens (IOL) to restore clear vision.
Femto Laser-Assisted Cataract Surgery (FLACS) is an advanced, precise, and minimally invasive approach to traditional cataract surgery that uses a femtosecond laser to automate critical steps in the procedure. This technology brings a new level of accuracy and safety to cataract surgery, minimizing manual interventions and improving outcomes.
Benefits of Femto Laser-Assisted Cataract Surgery
- Enhanced Precision and Safety
- Improved Visual Outcomes
- Faster Recovery
- Ideal for Complex Cases
After the Surgery: Recovery and Results
Patients typically experience rapid recovery, with improvements in vision often noticeable within days. Post-operative care involves using prescribed eye drops to prevent infection and inflammation, and avoiding activities that could strain the eye.
