Four Things to Know About Laser Cataract Surgery

SightTrust Eye Institute offers laser cataract surgery to residents of Boca Raton, Palm Beach, Weston, Miami and Fort Lauderdale, Florida. Most people have heard about this procedure, but a lot of them do not know much about it, or why it is necessary.

When you start to approach middle age, you may find it difficult to read text that is relatively close to your eyes, even though you never had this problem in the past. This is a condition called presbyopia. A lot of individuals are surprised when they hear that the problem is caused by cataracts that are clouding the natural lenses behind the irises.

The laser cataract surgery Miami, Palm Beach, and Fort Lauderdale residents can receive from our center can change everything. Let’s look at four things that you should know about the groundbreaking LenSx procedure that is performed by our cataract surgeon, Dr. Andrew Shatz.

The Surgery Is Quick and Easy

You don’t have to set aside a lot of time to get laser cataract surgery at SightTrust Eye Institute. The procedure can be completed in minutes, and patients can go home about a half-hour after the surgery.

Recovery Time Is Minimal

When you think about the impact of a lens being implanted into your eye, you may assume that there will be some significant recovery time involved. In fact, you can resume your normal day-to-day activities right away, and your vision should be totally stable in a week or two.

Multiple Vision Problems Can Be Corrected

Clearly, laser cataract surgery can correct presbyopia (farsightedness) so that you can see things clearly that are close to you. However, some individuals are nearsighted as well. You can look at the lens that is implanted as though it was a contact lens. Multiple different vision problems can be solved through the utilization of the right prescription intraocular lens.
