Treatment of Cataract

Till today there is no drug, which has been proved to cure cataract. The only treatment available is surgery i.e., removal of cataract.

When does cataract require removal?

Apart from the mature cataracts, even immature cataracts need to be removed if it hampers with the patients visual requirements. There is no necessity to wait for the cataract to ripen as in earlier times.

At Rajan Eye Care Hospital we are performing the latest techniques for cataract removal. We remove the cataract through a small incision by an ultrasonic aspiration technique called Phacoemulsification. Almost all the patients are implanted with intraocular lenses. The success rate after surgery is close to 99.5%.
