Cataract Surgery

What is a cataract?
A cataract occurs when the natural lens within the eye turns cloudy. This is a natural result of aging, but can be hastened by trauma, sun exposure, and certain medications. When daily activities, such as driving, reading, or watching television become impaired, then cataract surgery can restore useful vision.

Our doctors will be happy to determine if cataracts are the cause of your visual complaints. We will be happy to offer a second opinion if you have been told that you need surgery (not every cataract needs removal!)

See it all!
New intraocular lens implant technology can restore distance vision and reading vision! With these lens implants, known as RESTOR®, Rezoom®, and Crystalens®, most patients do not need glasses for distance or reading after surgery! (glasses may be required at some times).

A consultation with our doctors can tell you if one of these lenses is right for you.
