Things to Know Before Cataract Surgery

• Cataract surgery is very common and safe
  It is one of the most frequently performed surgeries in the world, with a high success rate and excellent outcomes for most patients.
  
  
• The procedure is quick and comfortable
  Cataract surgery is an outpatient procedure that usually takes less than 15 minutes per eye, although you will be at the surgery center for approximately 2 hours. You’ll receive medication to help you relax, but you will remain awake during the surgery. Your eye will be numb, and most patients experience little to no discomfort.
  
  
• Vision usually improves quickly
  Most people notice clearer vision within a few days, with continued improvement as the eye heals.
  
  
• You’ll choose a lens that fits your lifestyle
  Before surgery, your doctor will help you choose the intraocular lens (IOL) that best fits your vision goals, such as reducing your dependence on glasses. We offer several IOL options to meet different needs, including monofocal, toric, Eyhance,  Symfony, and Odyssey lenses. We will explain each option to you and help you decide which lens is right for you.
  
  
• Recovery is generally easy
  Most patients return to normal activities within a day or two. In most cases you will not need to use any prescription drops after surgery.   
  
  
• Surgery is done one eye at a time
  If both eyes need surgery, they are treated on separate days to allow each eye to heal properly.
