Why Choose Laser Cataract Surgery?

Traditional, manual cataract removal surgery has high success rates. However, our doctors prefer laser cataract surgery, because they believe it provides greater safety and precision for more positive visual outcomes.

The type of laser can make all the difference. That’s why we only use the femtosecond laser, or “femtolaser” in all laser cataract procedures.

The Benefits of Femtolaser Cataract Surgery

The femtosecond laser is remarkable because it gives your surgeon a high-resolution view of the cataract. Using a computer-controlled laser beam, your surgeon can more effectively perform the more delicate portions of cataract surgery, including:

• Making corneal incisions with increased precision
• Creating the opening of the capsule surrounding your cataract
• Precisely treating your astigmatism
• Softening the cataract for its removal

The femtosecond laser allows the surgeon to pinpoint the exact location for a more precise incision than traditional cataract surgery that uses a metal scalpel. This is leading to greater visual outcomes like never before.
