Cataract Surgery in Bangalore – Advanced Phaco & MICS Treatment in South Bangalore
What is Cataract?
Cataract causes clouding of the natural eye lens leading to blurred vision.
A cataract is the clouding of the natural lens of the eye that causes blurred vision, glare, and difficulty seeing at night. It commonly affects people above 50 years but may also occur earlier due to diabetes, trauma, or prolonged steroid use.
Cataract surgery is the only permanent treatment to restore clear vision.
When Do You Need Cataract Surgery?
You may need surgery if you experience:
- Blurred or foggy vision
- Glare while driving at night
- Double vision in one eye
- Frequent change in glasses number
- Difficulty reading or recognizing faces
If these symptoms interfere with daily activities, surgical removal of the cataract is recommended.
Glare and blurred vision are common symptoms of cataract.
Cataract Surgery Procedures Available at Samyak Drishti
Phacoemulsification (Phaco Surgery)
Phaco cataract surgery uses ultrasonic energy to break the cloudy lens into tiny fragments, which are then removed through a micro incision. A foldable intraocular lens (IOL) is implanted.
Benefits:
- No stitches
- Faster recovery
- Minimal discomfort
- Day-care procedure
Phacoemulsification allows stitchless cataract surgery with faster recovery.
MICS – Micro Incision Cataract Surgery
MICS is a highly refined technique performed through an even smaller incision than traditional phaco.
Advantages:
- Reduced surgical trauma
- Faster visual rehabilitation
- Minimal induced astigmatism
- Enhanced wound stability
MICS involves smaller incision and quicker visual rehabilitation.
