Millions of Americans suffer
from cataracts. We offer this revolutionary new laser technology to make your cataract surgery more
precise than ever before. This new laser cataract option, combined with
one of our advanced intraocular lenses, may also restore your near and
distance vision without relying on glasses, contacts, or even reading
glasses. We are proud to offer the latest
technology to offer each patient what they deserve in their cataract
surgery - The Best
There
are no eyes like yours and there is no cataract
procedure like customized laser cataract surgery for your eyes. We are pleased to offer ReLACS™ (Refractive Laser Assisted
Cataract Surgery), a bladeless, computer-controlled laser platform
combined with the most technologically advanced diagnostics. This
platform allows our surgeon to plan and perform your cataract surgery to
exacting, individualized specifications unattainable with other surgical
methods.
By adding computer control to key steps of cataract
surgery, cataract treatments utilizing ReLACS ensure the highest
surgical precision available today. When combined with advanced implant
options for cataract surgery, ReLACS procedures may offer freedom from
glasses, contact lenses, or even reading glasses after surgery.
Traditional cataract surgery has always involved the use of a physical
blade to create several small incisions during the procedure. With
ReLACS™, these incisions are now made with a laser. This technology
allows our surgeons to plan and perform cataract surgeries with laser
precision. With this advanced technology, surgeons experience more
control and flexibility; plus, ReLACS™ features real-time tools for an
accurate display of what’s going on inside the eye during the procedure. |

The FDA approved
LenSx laser system is the newest major advancement in cataract
surgery. It is based on the same proven femtosecond technology
used over the past decade during bladeless LASIK procedures. It
gives your surgeon image-guided control and the ability to plan
and customize every procedure to the unique characteristics of
your eyes.
This advanced laser not only creates extremely
precise cataract incisions and breaks up the cloudy lens for
easier removal, but it also has the ability to correct some
astigmatism with unprecedented accuracy and predictability.
Many patients return to normal activity the day after the
cataract surgery. You can expect your vision to be crisper,
clearer and for colors to be more vivid following your cataract
surgery.
A vast majority of patients who undergo cataract
surgery rank their vision as significantly improved. The
benefits of better vision following cataract surgery include
feeling safer, more independent, more confident and fewer
orthopedic incidents! |

Advanced Lifestyle Lens Options
Cataract surgery has undergone tremendous technological advances since
the days of your parents and grandparents. No longer does the procedure
simply restore your distance vision. Today, the goal is to enhance your
vision with a premium lifestyle lens designed to provide you with a full
range of vision while minimizing your dependence on glasses. During
surgery, your eye's cloudy natural lens will be replaced by an
artificial intraocular lens, or IOL.
Until recently, nearly everyone was
fitted with a basic IOL that would provide clear distance vision but
patients still had to rely on reading glasses or bifocals for a full
range of vision. Recent innovations have led to the development of a
variety of premium lifestyle lenses, each with their own unique features
and advancements. These lenses can correct mild to severe astigmatism
and also provide a greater range of vision - near, far and in between -
to allow most people to function comfortably with minimal or no
dependence on glasses. |

Premium Lens
Options: Full Range of Vision
Almost everyone over
the age of 50 loses the ability to read comfortably without
glasses due to a natural aging process called presbyopia.
Vibrant people want to eliminate the cumbersome chore of wearing
bifocals, trifocals, or simply keeping track of their reading
glasses. Premium lenses and laser technology now offer a unique
opportunity for patients to turn back the clock and continue to
enjoy an active lifestyle.
Patients undergoing cataract
surgery are excited to discover an experienced cataract surgeon
offering multifocal lenses. A multifocal IOL is a type of
premium lens implant that can restore your ability to focus on
things at varying distances including tasks such as reading, cooking, threading a needle or tying
a fishing lure.
Thanks to the unique combination of our
expertise and skill, premium multifocal lenses and the advanced
technologies of LenSx, our patients are enjoying outstanding
results and regaining their youthful vision! |

Premium Lens
Options: Astigmatism Correction
Astigmatism is an
irregularity in the shape of the cornea that distorts your
vision and cannot be corrected with a standard lens. Although
standard cataract surgery with a monofocal IOL may improve a
your distance vision, the majority of patients still find
themselves needing glasses due to astigmatism.
We offer
multiple options to correct astigmatism during cataract surgery
including minimally invasive, bladeless laser cataract surgery,
premium Toric lenses or a combination of both!
For many
patients these options will enable them to be glasses free for
their distance vision after surgery.
During your cataract
exam, our experienced team will help you determine which of the
methods of correcting astigmatism may work best for you. |
