Dr Stephen Slade is a specialist in LASIK eye surgery, and in modern cataract surgery. Modern cataract surgery may be the best refractive surgery for some patients. In this surgery the human lens is replaced by a soft plastic implant, which refocuses the eye. Cataract surgery is outpatient, and only takes 15 or 20 minutes. Success rates are extremely high. We use many of the best innovations in cataract surgery, such as drops only anesthesia (no shots), sutureless incisions through the clear cornea and foldable lenses. These advances enable us to use the smallest possible incision, about 1/18th of an inch. So small no sutures are usually needed. In addition, we have the nation’s longest experience in the accommodating IOL, the crystalens. This lens may be able to reduce or eliminate your need for glasses or contact lenses.
A naturally occurring cataract is an opacity in the lens, blurring your vision. For more information, visit Bausch & Lomb at www.bauschlomb.com
