CUSTOMEYESD CATARACT SURGERY

As many people age, cataracts, or clouding of the normally clear lens of the eye, are an increasingly common problem. Symptoms of cataracts include:
• blurred vision, • light sensitivity• double vision in one eye• poor night vision• color distortion• glare
Southwest Eye Institute offers state-of-the-art cataract correction to help patients regain the freedom of clear vision.
Dr. Malitz uses the latest technique in performing cataract surgery. Using only eye drops to numb the eye, Dr. Malitz creates a small incision and uses high-energy sound waves to break the cataract into microscopic particles, which are then removed from the eye. To compensate for the removal of the eye’s natural lens, an intra-ocular lens (IOL) is implanted into the eye. After using this special small incision, the eye remains tightly sealed by the natural outward pressure within your eye and no stitches are usually required.

The cataract removal technique Southwest Eye Institute uses is often preferred to traditional methods because patients are more comfortable during and after the procedure. Because this new technique uses eye drops to numb the eye, usually the need for an anesthetic shot, stitches, or a post-surgery patch is eliminated. Another advantage is that most patients notice a rapid visual improvement with this technique.
Whether it’s LASIK, CK, PRK,Cataract Surgery or another state of the art eye care procedure, we’ll find the best vision correction option for you.
