In a healthy eye, light enters the eye through the cornea, passes through the natural crystalline lens, and is accurately focused onto the retina, resulting in a crisp, clear image. As the eye ages and develops a cataract, the lens becomes cloudier, causing less light to pass through. The light that does not make it to the retina is diffused or scattered, causing vision to become unfocused and blurry.
In traditional cataract surgery, the surgeon uses a scalpel to make a small incision in order to remove the cataract. They may then break the lens into smaller pieces with an ultrasonic device to remove it from the eye. After the lens is removed, they will insert a new intraocular lens (IOL) into the eye.
Choosing the most skilled and experience cataract surgeon is imperative, as your vision is one of your most precious senses. It is important that you discuss your lifestyle and visual goals with your surgeon as you partner together to maximize results.
