Restoring Vision

Once a cataract has formed, the most effective way to restore vision is to remove the cloudy cataract and replace it with a plastic lens implant, (intraocular lens or IOL). With recent advances in cataract surgery equipment and techniques, vision can be restored safer and faster, allowing patients to resume normal activities within hours after surgery; (some activities may be limited during healing). Using these state of the art techniques, cataract surgery has a success rate greater than 98%.
