Cataract Surgery in Kochi

Cataract surgery is one of the most common and successful types of surgery performed today. More than 3 million people in the United States have cataract surgery each year, and more than 98 percent of these surgeries are successful in improving vision. During cataract surgery, your surgeon will make a small incision in your eye and then remove the clouded lens. Once the lens is removed, your surgeon will place a new, clear lens in its place.

Most people who have cataract surgery experience significantly improved vision afterward. In fact, many people report that their vision after surgery is better than it has been in years. Cataract surgery is usually an outpatient procedure, which means you can go home the same day. The surgery itself takes only a few minutes, and you will be under anesthesia for the procedure.
