Cataract
Cataract means cloudiness of the natural lens of your eye, causing hazy, blurry, and less colorful vision. Having a cataract can be like looking through a foggy or dusty car windshield.
Cataract surgery is a procedure in which the cloudy natural lens of the eye causing blurry vision is removed and replaced with an artificial lens.
Cataracts are removed with sound waves and by a group of consultants in this field without total anesthesia or even surgical stitches
All types of lenses are implanted, including soft lenses, astigmatism-correcting lenses, and multifocal lenses that replace the use of reading glasses.
