Cataract

Cataract

Cataract is a natural part of the eye’s aging process and is the primary reason of treatable blindness in our country. At Ahuja Eye Centre and Dental Clinic, we offer surgery for cataract extraction and intraocular lens implantation in a very simple and safe surgical procedure. Fully equipped with state-of-the-art operation theatres, these surgeries are undertaken in the safest possible way under the watchful eyes of experienced eye surgeons in this field. The procedure has a 98% success rate.

Our experienced and highly skilled surgeons are doing cataract surgeries under Topical Anaesthesia (no injection). There is very little discomfort or inconvenience and patients can usually return home few hours after surgery, as it is a day care procedure. We are implanting the latest available intraocular lenses such as multifocal toric and even trifocal toric with excellent results to provide our patients good unaided vision.

After surgery a bandage will be placed over your eye. You will be advised to rest till you are ready to leave. You should wear protective glasses to avoid accidental injury. The doctor will advise you when to discontinue them. You can bathe carefully from below your neck but do not wet the operated eye for 7 days. You may gently clean the eyelids with a piece of cotton boiled in water or a sterillized tissue.
