Cataract surgery is one of the most common and effective procedures performed to restore clear vision. A cataract occurs when the natural lens of the eye becomes cloudy, leading to blurred or dim vision. During surgery, the cloudy lens is removed and replaced with a clear, artificial intraocular lens (IOL).
Modern cataract surgery is quick, safe, and virtually painless, with most patients noticing significant improvement in their vision within a few days. Advanced techniques and premium IOLs also provide the opportunity to correct refractive errors such as nearsightedness, farsightedness, and astigmatism.
