Cataract Surgery in Chennai | "6" Minutes per eye

Restore your vision with trusted specialists and advanced laser techniques.

What is Cataract?

A cataract happens when the natural lens of your eye becomes cloudy, making your vision appear blurry or dull. It usually develops slowly and can affect one or both eyes. While aging is the main cause, factors like eye injuries, diabetes, or certain medications can also lead to cataracts.

At An Noor Eye Hospital, our consultants provide advanced cataract treatment in Chennai using modern techniques that help patients regain clear and comfortable vision.

“Early diagnosis can delay cataract progression and preserve vision.”

Dr. Khaleel Ahmed — Chief Surgeon & Senior Ophthalmologist, An Noor Eye Hospital

Symptoms

  • Blurred Vision
  • Glare and Halos
  • Reduced Night Vision
  • Fading Color
  • Double Vision
  • Frequent Prescription Changes

Diagnosis

  • Comprehensive Eye Exam: Your vision at various distances is evaluated during the visual acuity exam.
  • Slit-Lamp Examination: Uses a microscope with a bright light to examine the structure of the eye, including the lens and the retina.
  • Retinal Exam: Dilates the pupils to allow a detailed view of the retina and the optic nerve.
  • Tonometry: Measures intraocular pressure to rule out glaucoma, which can sometimes occur alongside cataracts.

Advanced Cataract Treatment in Chennai at An Noor Eye Hospital

The most effective treatment for cataracts involves the removal of the clouded lens and replacement with an artificial intraocular lens (IOL).

Procedure Steps

  • Preparation
  • Lens Removal
  • IOL Implantation
  • Incision Closure

Postoperative Care

  • Eye Drops: Used to prevent infection and inflammation and to promote healing.
  • Follow-Up Visits: Regular check-ups to monitor recovery and ensure the lens is positioned correctly. Activity Restrictions: Patients may need to avoid strenuous activities and heavy lifting for a short period after surgery.

Refractive Adjustments

  • Vision Correction: After cataract surgery, some patients may need corrective lenses to fine-tune vision, especially if they have presbyopia or other refractive errors before surgery.

  • Retinal Detachment: Rare but requires immediate medical attention if it occurs.
  • Vision Problems: Some patients may experience residual vision issues or need additional procedures for optimal vision.
