If you have cataracts, you are not alone and your Kissimmee ophthalmologist is here to help correct your vision problem and restore your eye health. Cataracts generally come as part of the aging process or as a result of disease or lifestyle behaviors. Your skilled ophthalmologist here in the Poinciana area provides successful cataract treatment with modern, high-tech and precise cataracts surgery.
Cataracts cause your eye to become thick and have an opaque appearance which you may notice in partial vision loss. You or others may also notice a cloudy appearance when looking at your eyes. Cataracts interfere with your eyes’ ability to transmit light to your retina.
Today’s improved cataract surgery no longer requires lengthy recovery. It is and elegant solution to repair cataract damage and is now an outpatient procedure offered by your experienced Kissimmee ophthalmologist. Modern cataracts surgery can bring you improved vision almost immediately.
Your eye surgeon in Poinciana will anesthetize your eye so that you feel no discomfort during the cataracts surgery procedure. The Kissimmee eye surgeon makes microscopic incisions, to perform a capsulotomy. This means that your MD eye doctor opens a flap in the "capsule" that keeps your natural ocular lens in place.
For the most accurate and precise result, your Kissimmee ophthalmologist makes a digital scan of your eye and sends it to a femtosecond laser. The femtolaser device uses quick, controlled pulses of laser energy (measured in quadrillionths of a second) to destroy the cataract, without harming the healthy parts of your eye.
Your eye surgeon in Kissimmee then removes the shattered cataract, which has been clouding your eyesight, with an ultrasound tool. Then your ophthalmologist places an artificial intraocular lens (IOL) into the tiny flap made for it by the laser, restoring your clear vision.
