Cataract treatment

Information
Cataract is a clouding of the natural crystalline lens of the eye, which leads to a gradual decrease in vision. Modern ophthalmology offers an effective solution to this problem by microsurgical replacement of the clouded lens with an artificial intraocular lens.
In our clinic, cataract surgeries are performed by experienced ophthalmic surgeons using state-of-the-art equipment. Modern technologies allow not only to restore the transparency of the optical environment of the eye, but also to simultaneously correct existing visual impairments - myopia, hyperopia, or astigmatism.
A comprehensive diagnostic procedure is performed before the surgery, including a detailed examination of all structures of the eye. The ophthalmologist assesses the condition of the retina, measures intraocular pressure to exclude glaucoma, and performs the necessary calculations to select the optimal intraocular lens.
Cataract surgical treatment is performed on an out-patient basis, under local anesthesia and takes about 15-20 minutes. Thanks to the use of modern methods, the risk of complications is minimal, and the rehabilitation period is quick and smooth.

Cataract - what you should know about the disease
A cataract is a clouding of the natural crystalline lens of the eye, which is normally completely transparent and acts as a lens, focusing light rays on the retina. In cataracts, the lens gradually loses its transparency, resulting in impaired vision.
Main causes of cataract development:
- Age-related changes (the most common cause)
- Eye injuries
- Prolonged exposure to UV light
- Certain chronic diseases
- Taking certain medications
- Hereditary predisposition
Typical symptoms:
- Gradual decrease in visual acuity
- Clouding and blurring of the vision
- Appearance of glare around light sources
- Change in color perception
- Frequent change of glasses due to changes in refraction
- Doubling of objects
Stages of cataract development:
- Initial: minor blurring, slight decrease in vision
- Premature: noticeable deterioration of vision, significant clouding of the crystalline lens
- Mature: significant decrease in vision, complete clouding of the crystalline lens
- Advanced: complete loss of transparency of the crystalline lens, severe visual impairment
Modern ophthalmology makes it possible to effectively treat cataract using microsurgery. The artificial lens installed during the surgery lasts a lifetime and does not need to be replaced.
It is important to remember that early visit to an ophthalmologist at the first signs of vision deterioration allows to diagnose cataract in time and choose the optimal time for surgery.
Modern methods of cataract treatment: surgical options
Today, the only effective method of cataract treatment is phacoemulsification surgery. This is a modern microsurgical procedure in which the clouded crystalline lens is removed through a microincision and replaced with an artificial intraocular lens. The entire surgery takes about 15-20 minutes and is performed under local anesthesia in the form of drops.
The procedure begins with a microincision of 2-3 millimeters in size. Through it, the surgeon breaks down the clouded lens using ultrasound and removes its fragments. An artificial lens is then installed in its place, which is selected individually for each patient.
Modern ophthalmology offers different types of intraocular lenses. Monofocal lenses provide clear vision at one distance, while multifocal lenses allow you to see clearly at various distances. There are also special toric lenses to correct astigmatism and aspheric lenses to improve the quality of vision in the dark.
The main advantages of modern cataract surgery are minimal damage, absence of stitches, and fast recovery. The surgery is performed on an out-patient basis, and in 2-3 days the patient can return to normal life. Full recovery usually takes one month, but it is necessary to follow certain restrictions and regularly visit an ophthalmologist for check-ups.
The choice of a specific method of surgery and type of artificial lens is always made on an individual basis after thorough diagnosis and consultation with an ophthalmic surgeon. This allows to achieve the best possible result in each specific case.
