The timing for your cataract surgery is really an individual decision that is based on your daily activity and vision needs. Since cataracts will cause your vision to slowly start to deteriorate, they will begin to affect your activities, such as your ability to read, drive or perform other daily tasks. Your Lakewood Ranch cataract surgeon from Coastal Eye can help you assess the risks and benefits of cataract surgery and talk about how it can improve your lifestyle.

When you and your surgeon decide that it's time for your cataract surgery, the cataract will be surgically removed and replaced with a clear IOL, or Intra-ocular lens. The Lakewood Ranch Cataract Center uses an advanced surgical technique that uses a tiny incision, which is often referred to as a ‘no stitch' or ‘no patch' surgical procedure.

Before it is gently removed, the cataract is broken apart using ultrasound technology. The lens implant is then inserted through a small incision and unfolds once inside the eye. Using this technique allows for the eye to heal quicker than previous methods, with minimal discomfort, usually taking only about 15 minutes to complete. If you have cataract surgery in the morning, you should be home in time for lunch, and watching television the same day.

Lakewood Ranch Laser Cataract Surgery brings a new level of accuracy and reproducibility by automating some of the most challenging steps of cataract surgery. The laser allows the surgeon to create precise, repeatable incisions using an image-guided laser. The laser precision is a technology that is unmatched by manual techniques that are used in standard cataract surgery. Along with this advantage, laser cataract surgery also allows the cataract to be broken up into smaller segments for efficient removal, reducing the risk of injury to the eye.

Laser Refractive Cataract Surgery is often an option for cataract patients who have astigmatism or who desire a multifocal lens implant to reduce or eliminate the need for glasses.
