Treatment of Cataract

Treatment of cataract is surgical removal of the Cataractous Lens. There is no drug or diet available for reducing cataract. The progress of cataract is different in different people and though in some it progresses rapidly and causes vision disturbances , in other people it may take many years to progress.

Methods of Cataract Surgery

The old system of cataract surgery involved injection around the eye, making the surrounding area and the eye numb, making a large incision (cut) of 12 to 13 mm and taking out the cataract through this incision in one piece (intracapsular) or just the central nucleus leaving behind the outer covering (the capsule) in which a intraocular lens could be fixed. The large incision was then closed with stitches. The eye was then bandaged for a period of one day or more. The visual recovery in these cases took upto 6 weeks and sometimes removal of stitches was required for complete recovery of vision.

Latest surgical techniques for Motiabind operation used at Bharti eye hospital

Cataract surgery is a daycare procedure in which cataract lens is removed and replaced with artificial intraocular lens. This surgery is done to restore patients vision which is compromised due to cloudiness of the natural lens. Phacoemulsification, Femto laser cataract surgery and Zepto laser cataract surgery are commonly used techniques at Bharti Eye Hospital.

Femtosecond Laser Assisted Cataract Surgery (FLACS) or laser cataract surgery includes the following :

The Corneal Incision
In tradition phacoemulsification blade is used to make incisions in the cornea to perform surgery, but in femtosecond laser system blade is not used and all the cuts are made by laser itself. Laser cuts are superior than manual cuts and provide better wound healing after the surgery.

The Anterior Capsulotomy
This is a very crucial step in performing cataract surgery. Lens is enclosed in a transparent bag and for removing the lens that capsular bag has to be opened. This opening is made with forceps or needle in phacoemulsification. In laser cataract surgery this step is performed by laser itself.

Lens Or Cataract Fragmentation
In phacoemulsification lens is broken into multiple pieces manually but in laser cataract surgery lens is broken in small pieces with the help of femtosecond laser.

The added precision, accuracy and reproducibility of each of these steps helps in achieving better outcome in laser cataract surgery.

Zepto Cataract Surgery

It is the latest advancement in automated surgery which uses the Zepto Capsulotomy device to give better results in certain complex cases like children with cataract etc.
