Cataract surgery in Delhi NCR

The eye lens is made up of water and protein and is present behind the colored part of the eye. The lens is responsible for producing sharp and clear images of the retina. When the protein of the lens forms clumps, due to aging, trauma, radiation exposure, etc., it prevents the lens from sending clear images to the retina. The lump formation caused due to protein accumulation is a slow and gradual process that can appear in one or both eyes.

This condition is commonly witnessed in older people. Thus, a cataract is a dense and cloudy area that forms on the lens of the eye, halting the transmission of light to the retina. As a result, the lens becomes less transparent and the vision becomes blurry and gradually declines over the years.

Types of Cataract Surgeries

The expert surgeons of Glamyo Health perform cataract surgery in Delhi NCR using two techniques as explained below:

Micro-Incision Cataract Surgery (MICS): As the name suggests, in this cataract surgery, a microincision is made through which the surgeon breaks the lens and removes the broken parts of the lens through suction (Phacoemulsification). Further, the eye surgeon inserts another probe into the empty lens cavity and inserts and fixes and adjusts an Intraocular Lens (IOL). This surgery is covered under insurance.

Femtosecond-Laser-Assisted Cataract Surgery (FLACS): In this procedure, the cataract is removed through laser-assisted surgery. The eye surgeon inserts a tiny probe into the eye which emits ultrasound waves. These waves soften and break the lens which is then sucked out using the phacoemulsification process. Further, another probe is inserted to fix and adjust an IOL in the empty lens cavity. Since this is an advanced cosmetic procedure, this is not covered under insurance.
