Laser-Assisted Cataract Surgery has Revolutionized the Procedure

Traditional cataract surgery and laser-assisted cataract surgery can both be effective for removing cataracts when performed by a skilled surgeon. In fact, 95% of patients who undergo cataract surgery report improvement in their vision after their surgery. But, for a procedure that's performed in a space as small as the human eye, there may be room for enhanced precision, predictability, and surgical outcomes.  This is why Ophthalmologist, Kenneth Lindahl, offers the LenSx® Laser to his cataract patients.

The LenSx® Laser has revolutionized cataract treatment and there are several factors that make lenSx Laser an innovative addition to the world of cataract surgery. 

1.  The Laser-assisted surgery is bladeless.
2. The system uses advanced technology to map your eye that's uniquely personalized to you. It brings that extra degree of precision and predictability that is unattainable with traditional methods.
   

You've got options when it comes to cataract surgery

Cataracts occur naturally as you age. Your natural lens becomes cloudy as you age, obscuring or blurring your vision. It can become a problem if left untreated. Cataract surgery is very common with a very high success rate. During cataract surgery, the blurry lens is removed and replaced with an artificial lens known as an intraocular lens, or IOL.

You have a variety of options when it comes to cataract surgery. In addition to choosing your surgeon, you can pick between a manual procedure or one assisted by a laser system like LenSx Laser, and you can decide what type of IOL you would like. 

This simple chart breaks down the different kids of IOLs in order to help you have an informed conversation with your doctor about the best option for you:
