Cataracts

Surgical Intervention: When cataracts significantly impair vision and impact daily activities, cataract surgery becomes the recommended treatment. At Dr. Akbar Eye Care, we specialize in advanced cataract surgery techniques, including:

• Phacoemulsification: This modern cataract surgery technique uses ultrasound energy to break up the cloudy lens into small pieces, which are then gently removed from the eye. A clear artificial intraocular lens (IOL) is then implanted to replace the cloudy lens, restoring clear vision.
• Femtosecond Laser-Assisted Cataract Surgery: This advanced procedure enhances precision and safety by using a laser to perform key steps of the cataract surgery, including creating precise incisions and fragmenting the lens, before proceeding with phacoemulsification.
• Premium Intraocular Lens Options: We offer a variety of premium IOLs, including multifocal, toric (for astigmatism correction), and extended depth of focus lenses. These lenses can reduce or eliminate the need for glasses or contact lenses after cataract surgery, addressing both cataracts and pre-existing refractive errors simultaneously.
