What are Cataracts?

A cataract is the development of cloudiness of the natural lens of the eye. Much like the lens of camera, our eye focuses light toward the back of the eye, onto the retina. Our eye’s lens also works to adjust the focus of the eye, allowing us to see both near and far.

Some symptoms you may experience are:

  • glared vision and halos
  • blurriness or a sense of cloudiness
  • trouble with vision at night
  • constant change in your prescription

If you believe you may be suffering from cataracts, schedule a screening today or take our self test.

Laser Cataract Surgery:
A Revolutionary Innovation and Modern Approach to Cataract Surgery

Just like a fingerprint, every eye has a unique size and shape. At the Williamson Eye Center, we are pleased to offer technology that enables our surgeons to create a tailored treatment plan that is uniquely customized to your eye - not achieved by the use of traditional manual techniques.

With advanced options in modern cataract surgery, many of our patients are enjoying life without glasses and contacts – giving them clear vision for reading and distance all at the same time.

At the Williamson Eye Center, we are pleased to offer a modern approach to your cataract surgery with:

  • A Customized Treatment Plan
  • Advanced 3D Imaging
  • Laser Precise Treatments
  • Gentle Approach to Surgery
  • Less Inflammation
  • Faster Recovery
  • Astigmatism Correction
  • Advanced Options to Greatly Reduce your need for Reading Glasses while also Correcting your Distance Vision

Enhanced Accuracy with ORA Scans

We also utilize the ORA scan system, which allows your surgeon to choose the best lens to correct your vision. Benefits of using the ORA system include:

  • Lens power confirmation and optimization
  • Proper lens orientation
  • Eliminate as many refractive errors as possible at the time of surgery
  • Increased chance of being less dependent on glasses or contact lenses for distance vision
  • Customized enhanced visual outcome

Advanced Lifestyle Lenses

During traditional cataract surgery, your eye’s natural lens will be replaced with a synthetic monofocal intraocular lens (IOL). The surgery will bring a patients vision back to where it was prior to the onset of cataracts, however, if prior to cataracts he or she had a prescription for glasses or contact lenses, those visual aids will still be required for both distance and reading vision. Many patients are satisfied with this lens, as it restores their vision to a functional point.

Some patients seek to restore their vision to complete capacity with one surgical procedure, thus leaving glasses or contact lenses behind for life. Recent advancements in visual technology have produced ‘advanced lenses,’ which can be customized to work with your individual needs. Often referred to as ‘lifestyle lenses,’ this advanced technology affords patients many advantages over the traditional monofocal lens. Even patients suffering from astigmatism can potentially eliminate dependency on glasses, reading glasses and contact lenses. Imagine having no need for readers to see menus, computer screens and labels!

At Williamson Eye Center, we work with each patient to develop a customized treatment plan to suit even the busiest lifestyle. It is our commitment to deliver the best results to leave you free of the hassle of glasses and contact lenses for life.
