Cataract Surgery in Shimoga

Cataract surgery is a common procedure performed to treat cataracts, which are cloudy areas that develop in the eye’s lens. Cataracts can cause blurred vision and make it difficult to see clearly. Surgery involves removing the cloudy lens and replacing it with an artificial one.

Shimoga has various cataract surgeries which are performed by ophthalmologists. The city has a large number of hospitals that are well-equipped to handle such surgeries. The surgery is usually performed under local anesthesia and takes about an hour to complete. After the surgery, patients are usually discharged the same day and are advised to rest at home for a few days.

Cataract surgery is a safe and effective way to treat cataracts and improve vision. There are a few risks associated with the surgery, but they are rare and can usually be treated effectively.
