What are the procedures for cataract treatment? Are there any age restrictions?
At present the most effective, safe and sparing procedure for cataract treatment is ultrasonic phacoemulsification with intraocular lens implantation. EXCIMER Ophthalmologic Clinic offers this technique as a cataract treatment. The core of the technique is to emulsify the crystalline lens using ultrasound and to aspire it out of the eye. The lens is then replaced by a folded intraocular lens, which unfolds and secures itself inside the eye,
Unlike classic (old) methods, no suturing is required, as all procedures are performed through a micro-incision of only 1.8 mm, that seals itself after the surgery.
Of course the decision on the possibility to perform the intervention is taken individually for each patient based on comprehensive testing results. Use of local eye-drop anaesthesia excludes extra strain on cardio-vascular system and other organs. Therefore there are no age restrictions for such a surgery, for instance the oldest cataract patient who had a phacoemulsification surgery is 104!
I am myopic -11 and -12, spectacles are no use, I can’t wear contact lenses as well, and I was refused to have a laser correction. What to do?
To correct high degrees of myopia, hyperopia and astigmatism in cases when natural accommodation is still present we could recommend phakic lenses implantation. Technically phakic lenses are quite similar to contacts, but instead of being worn on the corneal surface they are implanted inside the eye (into anterior or posterior chamber). Phakic lenses are implanted by the ophthalmic surgeon through a micro-incision of 2,5 mm which is self sealing and needs no suturing. The procedure is delivered in one-day mode without a hospital admission.
Is it possible to get rid of farsightedness and cataract in one surgery? Or are those different surgeries?
Cataract is quite often is accompanied by age-related hyperopia, especially in senior ages. With time crystalline lenses loose transparency, they get partly or completely clouded – and that is a cataract sign. Besides age-related changes affect elasticity and the ability of the crystalline lens to change its shape ensuring immediate focusing when changing glance from objects located near to others far away. Due to drop in crystalline lens ability to increase its flexion when focusing on objects located near, age-related hyperopia develops. EXCIMER Clinic offers the modern way to get rid of the two problems in one go. Surgery is the only way of cataract treatment. The core of the procedure is to replace the clouded crystalline lens with an artificial intraocular lens, very similar in its properties to the natural lens. A wide range of IOLs allows to get rid of cataract but also correct refraction abnormalities on top. In your case – to manage age-related hyperopia. Modern ophthalmology successfully uses new models of intra-ocular lenses, e.g. multifocal and accommodating, providing solution for two problems at once – hyperopia and cataract. The decision on feasibility and correction method is taken by the doctor based on comprehensive diagnostics testing results.
