  1. Most of us, after the age of 50, are likely to have cataracts. The reason behind this is that the proteins in the lens of the eyes may begin to break down, making the lens cloudy, and difficult for one to see. Cataracts can thus, cause partial or total blindness. It cannot be corrected by any kinds of glasses or contact lenses. What is required to treat the condition is a cataract surgery in Andheri West, which is a quick and safe surgical procedure that produces incredible visual outcomes. What is cataract surgery? In a cataract surgery, the natural lens within the eye is removed, and replaced with an artificial lens to restore clear vision. As dangerous as it may sound, a cataract surgery is in reality a very safe procedure. It involves the use of a high-frequency ultrasound device that breaks up the cloudy lens into small pieces, which are then gently removed with suction. The artificial lens is then inserted into the eye, positioning it securely behind the iris and pupil, just where the original lens was. It is a quick procedure that requires no hospital stay. However, there is quite an amount of time required to take care of the eyes after the surgery. Is cataract surgery an invasive procedure?

  2. While earlier, blades and other hand-held tools were used to make incisions in the eyes to perform the cataract surgery, today, there are a number of lasers used that reduce the need for such blades and invasive tools. Incisions are now made in the cornea with the help of lasers; thus eliminating pain and discomfort; making it easy for the surgeons too. The lasers are also used to remove the anterior capsule of the lens, and fragment the cataract. Cataract surgery – before, during, and after Before– You will be required to undergo a comprehensive eye exam before the cataract surgery to check the overall health of the eyes, identify any risk factors, and check if surgery is appropriate for your eyes. A refraction test is also performed to accurately determine the amount of nearsightedness, farsightedness, and astigmatism. Additional measurements will be taken to determine the curvature of your cornea and length of your eye. All these tests will determine the lens that will give you the best vision after the surgery. During– As mentioned above, a cataract surgery involves a laser that will make incisions in your eyes, and break down the cloudy lens into fragments. These fragments will then be pulled out through suction. The new artificial lens will then be placed in the position from where the cloudy lens is removed. After– You must follow all the eye exercises and medication routines as prescribed by your doctor. Other than that, you must have a healthy diet, quit tobacco, and keep your blood pressure and lipid levels under control. Focus on foods like carrots, dark green leafy vegetables, corn, and citrus fruits.
