If you've ever been unsatisfied with your vision after cataract surgery, you're not alone. That's why the Light Adjustable Lens was created - the first Intraocular Lens (IOL) that allows for customized vision after surgery. Thanks to this groundbreaking technology, Dr. Lindahl can now adjust your vision to your liking after surgery.
One certainty in life is that everyone will eventually develop cataracts. In fact, cataract formation starts earlier than you might think, typically in your 40s. Most cataracts, however, do not become significant enough to notice until your 50s or 60s, which is when most folks elect to have cataract surgery. But how do we know when it’s time for surgery?
Cataracts and astigmatism are common vision conditions that impact your overall quality of vision in the healthy eye. The eye's natural lens focuses light and helps you see people and objects at varying distances. When you have a cataract, the lens in your eye stiffens and hardens resulting in blurry cloudy vision.
