Laser Cataract Surgery in Mumbai
Laser cataract surgery, also known as femtosecond laser-assisted cataract surgery (FLACS), is an advanced procedure for removing cataracts using laser technology.
- Precision: The laser creates precise incisions and breaks up the cloudy lens with high accuracy.
- Safety: Reduces the risk of complications by minimizing trauma to surrounding tissues.
- Customization: Tailored to each patient's eye, enhancing the effectiveness of lens replacement.
- Recovery: Often results in a faster recovery and improved visual outcomes compared to traditional methods.
How Is Laser Cataract Surgery Done?
A camera or ultrasound device is placed over your eye to map its surface and gather detailed information about your lens. This data is sent to a computer, which programs the laser with the exact location, size, and depth for the incisions. The surgeon uses the laser to create the corneal incision and the opening in the lens capsule. The laser’s energy may also be used to soften the cataract. An ultrasound probe then breaks the softened lens into pieces and suctions them out. Finally, the surgeon implants the intraocular lens (IOL) into the eye. Typically, the incision does not require stitches, promoting a quicker recovery.
