Understanding Cataract – A Common Yet Treatable Eye Condition
Cataract is a common eye problem, especially among older adults, where the natural lens of the eye becomes cloudy, leading to blurred or dim vision. It may develop gradually and can affect one or both eyes, making daily activities like reading or driving difficult. Symptoms include sensitivity to light, faded colors, and poor night vision. Fortunately, cataracts can be effectively treated through a simple and safe surgical procedure, where the cloudy lens is replaced with a clear artificial lens — restoring sharp, bright vision. Early diagnosis and timely treatment are key to preventing vision loss.
How We Treat Cataract
We use the latest phacoemulsification and bladeless laser-assisted techniques to remove cataracts safely and painlessly. The procedure involves replacing the cloudy natural lens with a high-quality intraocular lens (IOL) — customized to your vision needs. It’s a day-care surgery, completed in just 15–20 minutes, with no stitches or injections required. Most patients experience clearer vision within 24 to 48 hours and resume normal activities quickly.
Who Performs Cataract Surgery?
Cataract surgery is performed by a qualified ophthalmologist, specifically an eye surgeon with specialized training in anterior segment microsurgery. At our hospital in Bangalore, all cataract procedures are carried out by highly experienced and board-certified eye surgeons who have performed hundreds to thousands of successful surgeries. They are supported by a skilled clinical team and equipped with state-of-the-art surgical tools to ensure the highest standards of safety, precision, and comfort.
