Phacoemulsification: The Gold Standard for Cataract Removal

Phacoemulsification is the most advanced and commonly performed cataract surgery technique worldwide. This modern procedure uses ultrasound energy to break up cataracts for gentle removal.

How Phacoemulsification Works

The surgeon makes a small incision and uses a tiny ultrasound probe to break the cloudy lens into microscopic fragments. These fragments are then gently suctioned out, and an artificial intraocular lens is implanted.

Advantages of Phacoemulsification

  • No-stitch surgery
  • Quick recovery time
  • Excellent visual outcomes
  • Minimal discomfort
  • Same-day discharge
