If you have been diagnosed with cataracts or ready to consider cataract surgery, our doctors can help you monitor your cataracts and help determine when is the right time for cataract surgery. Once you have decided to proceed with cataract surgery, our cataract specialist, Dr. Sonny Goel will treat your cataracts using advanced, minimally invasive surgical techniques. Contact us today to learn more.
Not all cataracts require immediate surgery once they are diagnosed. Cataracts develop at different rates of severity but once they begin to affect your quality of life you may want to consider laser cataract surgery. If your doctor recommends careful monitoring of the cataracts, make sure to update your eyeglass prescription. Cataracts can often cause a shift in your vision and updating your eyeglass prescription will help you see better. Also don’t forget to add an anti-glare coating to your glasses. This will help minimize glare and reflection that might occur from cataracts. In advance stages of cataracts, a change in eyeglass prescription will no longer help improve your vision. You may also begin to have trouble completing routine daily activities due to poor vision. At this time your doctor may recommend laser cataract surgery.
During the minimally-invasive surgery, Dr. Goel will remove the opaque natural lens and replace it with a clear intraocular lens (IOL) implant. Dr. Goel offers both traditional and laser cataract surgery, although he prefers the accuracy of the laser procedure. In addition, you and Dr. Goel will discuss options for premium intraocular lenses implants to help enhance your vision after surgery. Premium intraocular lenses are available to correct for high astigmatism and help improve your reading vision after surgery. Learn more about cataracts as well as possible treatment options by contacting us today. We will be happy to schedule your initial consultation with Dr. Goel. He knows how important your vision is, so he will take time to answer your questions and help you understand your treatment.
