What is cataract surgery?
Victor Derhartunian explains cataract surgery.
Cataract surgery is a short procedure. It takes about 10 minutes.
The procedure is also performed under local anesthesia.
This involves the removal of the naturally opaque lens. This lens is shattered by ultrasound waves and is also aspirated. A modern implant is then inserted in place of the natural lens to restore your vision.
