What are the key benefits of laser cataract surgery?

Precise mapping — Before surgery, the new cataract laser system allows your surgeon to create a 3D map of your eye, which results in exceptionally precise measurements for each step of surgery.

Laser precision — In the first step of cataract surgery, the laser is used to create the opening in the lens capsule that holds the cataract. The laser makes this opening as circular as possible, which allows for precise placement of the new lens. The laser can also be used to make specialized incisions to correct astigmatism.

Gentle approach — The new laser system is also used to soften the cataract and break it into very small pieces, which allows for gentler, easier cataract removal. As in traditional cataract surgery, patients choose a replacement lens that meets their vision needs.FOR MORE
