What are Cataracts?

The human lens focuses light for clear vision. Similar to hair and skin, it undergoes natural changes over time as the collagen it is made of remodels, leading to opacification. A cloudy lens is called a cataract, causing dull colors, glares, haloes, and blurry sight. The great news? Cataract surgery can restore—and even enhance—your vision!

Modern cataract surgery doesn’t just remove the clouded lens; it offers the chance to upgrade your vision with advanced lens options. Surgery results in colors becoming brighter, and sharper sight. It’s a fresh start for your eyes, helping you see the world with new clarity.​

Minimally Invasive Glaucoma Surgery (MIGS)

MIGS Procedures are an excellent option for patients with glaucoma. Performed at the time of cataract surgery, they add about 5 minutes to the total operating time and are performed through the same incisions. They offer glaucoma patients lifelong benefits in decreased disease progression and burden of glaucoma medications.
