The formation of a cataract can make activities such as reading and driving difficult. The good news is that, good vision can be safely restored with outpatient cataract surgery.

What Happens During Cataract Surgery?

The cataract is removed from inside a clear capsular sac that holds the natural lens inside the eye. A clear intraocular lens (IOL) implant is then inserted into the capsular sac.

Cataract surgery is one of the most common and safest surgical procedures performed in the US today with 2.7 million procedures performed annually.

With the development of No-Stitch/Small Incision Cataract Surgery, many patients are experiencing a faster recovery and a quicker return to good vision.

There is no way to prevent the development of cataracts, however, loss of sight from the disease is largely preventable. When a loss of vision begins interfering with daily activities due to cataracts, cataracts can be removed and good vision restored by performing Cataract surgery. If you are experiencing the symptoms of cataracts or other vision problems, call our Stamm Cataract & Laser Center at 814-453-4575 today for a complete eye examination.
