What should I expect during cataract surgery?
Your doctor creates two tiny incisions in the transparent tissue covering the front of your eye so that they may access the lens capsule. The lens capsule holds the lens in the proper place in your eye.
Your doctor then creates a small opening in the lens capsule and uses an ultrasound device to break the lens into tiny pieces, which are then suctioned out of your eye. Once the cloudy lens is removed, your doctor inserts the clear, artificial lens into place. The incisions heal without the need for stitches.
When will I experience results from cataract surgery?
Some patients have improved vision the day after cataract surgery, while others need a few days or as long as a month to experience full results.
