Topical microincision cataract surgery
Cataract is a cloudiness or opacity of the eye’s natural clear lens. It obstructs the passage of light to the retina of the eye and impairs vision. When the lens develops cloudiness to the point that it impairs vision, it is called Cataract. It is like looking through a frosted glass.
MICROINCISION TOPICAL CATARACT SURGERY
- Phacoemulsification is the technique, which is being used for more than a decade. The cataract procedure and its techniques have evolved dramatically improving vision in up to 99% of cases and saving millions from cataract-induced blindnessNo injection, No stitch Phacoemulsification Cataract Treatment with /PANOPTIX /Restor Multifocal IOL / IQ Acrysof Intra Ocular Lens {IOL} implantation is the technique, which is being used. This technique is the most advanced technique for cataract management. At Bansal Eye Care we employ 2.2mm incision {using ULTRA SLEEVE} micro coaxial technique with the latest “Torsional Emulsification” with IQ Acrysof Intra Ocular Lens {IOL} / Restor Multifocal IOL implantation/Panoptix IOL Implantation . Cataract Treatment with phacoemulsification is performed under topical or regional anesthesia. Paracaine eye drops are used to numb the eye. No injection is given to numb the eye. The patients can move their eyes after surgery.
- Topical anesthesia has innumerable advantages.
- There are no risks which are sometimes associated with regional anesthesia.
- There is improved vision almost immediately after surgery.
- This type of anesthesia is most helpful to cataract patients with sight in only one eye.
- A small incision, less than 3mm, incision is made. Special microsurgical instruments are used to break up and suck the lens fragments from the eye (phacoemulsification). The back portion of the lens capsule is left in place and polished for clarity. A small foldable intraocular lens is inserted through the wound and unfolded in place of the natural lens. The incision is self-sealing so that no stitches are needed. The no stitch incision is used because it can seal itself after Cataract Treatment without stitches, which allows the eye to heal more naturally and with greater symmetry.
- The state-of-the-art surgical methods allow people to return home shortly after the procedure to continue with their regular routines. The total stay in the Institute is for 2-3 hours.
CATARACT TECHNOLOGY
- Torsional Phacoemulsification with centurion Silver System is the most advanced and only USFDA APPROVED Phacoemulsification technology in the world for cataract surgery. Torsional Emulsification is a much safer & efficient technique as compared with the traditional phacoemulsification technique. This advanced state-of-the–art technology has changed the very perspective of phacoemulsification.
