Cataract Surgery

Cataracts, which cause cloudy or blurry vision, can be effectively treated through surgery. At Mitchell Eye Centre, we offer advanced cataract surgery to restore clear vision. Our experienced surgeons replace the clouded lens with a clear artificial implant, improving vision and reducing dependence on glasses.

Cataract surgery, also known as phacoemulsification, is a common and effective procedure to restore clear vision. During this outpatient surgery, an ultrasonic probe is used to break down the cloudy lens into tiny particles, which are then removed by suction.

A clear artificial lens (IOL) is implanted in its place to restore vision. Phacoemulsification is renowned for its safety, precision, and rapid recovery time. Most patients experience minimal discomfort and can resume normal activities within a few days.

For patients who develop a secondary cataract after cataract surgery, a YAG laser can be used to clear the cloudy film that forms on the lens implant. This procedure is quick, painless, and restores vision without the need for incision.

We offer a range of advanced lens implants to cater to individual needs and lifestyles. Our experienced team will recommend the best option for you based on your eye condition and visual goals.
