Premium cataract surgery
It is important to learn about the options to achieve the best visual outcomes from your cataract surgery with Dr. Nowrouzi.
Prior to your consultation, It is important to know basic concepts and the options for lens implants to restore your vision. At your consultation, Dr. Nowrouzi will guide you as to which options will give you the best results in order to meet or exceed your expectations.
The cataract is your human lens which has become cloudy and when we remove it, we need to replace it with a man-made lens implant which we call an IOL (Intra-Ocular Lens). It is important for all of our patients to have enough information at the moment of lens selection. It is really important to do an extensive and accurate ophthalmological exploration to do a customized selection of the premium lens based on patient demands, visual goals, lifestyle, working distance, and hobbies. We will work with our patients to determine the best lens options to meet their needs. Choosing the right lens option is a personal process, and will be different for every patient.
I had the opportunity of doing a special subspeciality in these kind of surgeries with an extensive experience in implanting of many premium lenses and the process of customized lens selection for many patients.
Because of this importance we settled up a special department of customized premium lenses study in our clinic for each patient to do a customized selection of the premium lens based on patient demands and visual goals.
What causes cataracts?
Cataracts are very common and can come about due to several conditions:
- Aging
- Diabetes
- High blood pressure
- Eye injuries
- Eye inflammation
- Prior eye surgery
- Extreme sun exposure over time
Cataracts are the most common cause of blindness and are the leading cause of vision loss in the world. Thankfully, modern medicine has found a way to cure cataracts. The natural lens of the eye can be replaced with a synthetic lens, restoring clear, crisp vision for the long term. There is no other way to resolve cataracts, as once the lens deteriorates, it can’t be restored naturally.
Types of cataracts
Cataracts affect people in a variety of ways and can develop on several parts of the eye lens.
- Nuclear cataracts: These cataracts develop in the center of the natural lens.
- Cortical cataracts: These cataracts develop on the sides of the eye lens, in streaks or a wedge shape, eventually spreading to the center of the lens.
- Posterior subcapsular cataracts: These cataracts develop on the back of the lens.
- Congenital cataracts: Some people have cataracts at birth, which worsen during childhood. The cause of these cataracts is not fully known but may be associated with infection during gestation or trauma.
Can you prevent cataracts?
It may be possible to ward off the speed of the deterioration of the eye’s natural lens by avoiding excessive sun exposure and wearing sunglasses with UV protection. However, over time, many people develop cataracts.
What is the concept of refractive lens exchange and what is its main benefit for presbyopia as a permanent and definitive treatment?
Refractive lens exchange, in which the natural crystalline lens in the eye is replaced with an intra-ocular premium lens (IOL), can effectively reduce or mitigate the need for reading glasses by using various intraocular premium lens implants, including multifocal, extended depth of focus, or accommodating intraocular lens implants. Current premium lens designs predominantly provide very good visual outcomes.
It is really important to conduct an extensive and accurate ophthalmological exploration to be able to create a customised selection of the premium lenses needed, based on patient demands, visual goals, lifestyle, working distance, and hobbies. In our clinic, we work with our patients to determine the best premium lens options to meet their needs, having dedicated a whole special department.
