Cataract surgery is the removal of the natural lens of the eye that is opacified, called a cataract, and then replacement with an intraocular lens that is an artificial lens implanted after cataract surgery. A cataract develops in the eye because of metabolic changes in the lens or due to trauma or it can be congenital.
Many surgical procedures are introduced, to remove cataracts, in the field of ophthalmology. Cataract surgery has evolved from intracapsular cataract extraction, extracapsular cataract extraction, Phacoemulsification and then with newest technology Bladeless Femtosecond Laser cataract surgery
Here we are going to talk about the Bladeless Femtosecond cataract surgery in which instead of blade or needle, a femtosecond laser technology is used to make the cut in the patient’s eye.A pulse in the laser is used for this method.Pulse that is used in this,is femtoseconds (10-15) of seconds,that’s why we call it,Femtosecond laser cataract surgery.
After completing clinical trials,receiving the CE mark,and US FDA approval, the Femtosecond laser cataract surgery machines are available in India.
Wavikar Eye Institute in Thane, Mumbai with experienced and skilled ophthalmologists,is providing the best bladeless surgical treatment for cataracts.
This is a laser process the cut is made through a Femto laser, by which cataract is cut into 4-6 pieces. Femto improves the reliability of cut, thus a centered cut is finer in its size and shape and leads to better positioning and insertion of intraocular lens thereby improving the safety and visual outcomes of cataract surgery. The entire process is done under computer-guided imaging
Patient’s satisfaction, needs, and care are of utmost importance. Wavikar eye institute is easily accessible and affordable to all patients, no matter from where they come. This institute has a group of specialized ophthalmologists and professionals that sets the goal of most appropriate treatment according to the patient’s needs and health. They guide patients with proper care through the entire process from treatment to recovery and takes them to live an independent life.
The laser is a safer method as the surgeon’s performance is more than patient, thus it is more precise and it gives a better cut than handheld.Femto is the best option for patients who are afraid of the blade on needle cut It also corrects pre-existing astigmatism in the patient’s eye.
More-over laser incisions are computer-controlled so they are more accurate than the manual incision.Wound seals better patient becomes less prone to infections.
