CATARACT SURGERIES AND TECHNOLOGY
Broadly cataract surgeries can be divided in two groups.
1) SICS (Small Incision Cataract Surgery): Incision measuring about 5 mm is taken. Matured cataract is taken out from this incision and intraocular lens is inserted at same place. This type of surgeries require around 8 days for healing and due post-operative care is required.
2) PHACO Emulsification: This is advanced technic and surgeries are performed with highly sophisticated Phaco machines. Incision taken is small in size compared with SICS and technology facilitate use of foldable lens. Beside more accuracy it also reduces recovery period, thus allowing patient to perform daily activity earlier.
