Cataract Eye Surgery
Cataracts are incredibly common, with an estimated 17% of people worldwide affected, according to the WHO. Cataracts occur when the proteins (crystallins) in the lens of the eye, which is normally clear and flexible, begin to break down with age. This leads to the formation of cloudy patches that affect vision. The good news is that cataracts can be detected during routine eye tests.

Cataract Treatment At The SRF Eye Hospital
Cataract surgery is the only effective way to remove cataracts and restore clear vision. It is one of the safest and most commonly performed surgeries, with a very low risk of serious complications.
At the SRF Eye Hospital, we use Micro-Incision Cataract Surgery (MICS) to ensure the best outcomes for our patients. This advanced, minimally invasive technique involves making tiny incisions to remove the cloudy lens and replace it with a clear intraocular lens (IOL). MICS offers quicker recovery times and a lower risk of complications, allowing you to regain clear vision more rapidly.
MICS Cataract Surgery Intraocular Lens
Implant Choices
We offer a range of intraocular lens implant choices tailored to your specific vision needs:
Monofocal Lens:
Corrects distance vision, helping you see clearly for activities such as driving and watching television.
Presbyopia-correcting/Multifocal Lens
Corrects both distance and near vision, reducing the dependency on reading glasses and distance glasses after cataract surgery.
Toric Lens
Corrects astigmatism, a common refractive error, and provides sharp vision at varied distances, reducing the need for additional corrective lenses.
