Cataract Surgery

 

Cataract Surgery is the most common surgical procedure performed, it involves the removal of the cataractous lens and replacement with an artificial lens. Prior to surgery your eyes are very carefully assessed with multiple modalities to optimize your visual outcome



Dr Chesney and Dr Abell perform microincisional sutureless cataract surgery through a wound just 2 millimetres in size. The surgery is performed under local anaesthetic with sedation, using an Operating microscope, utilising the latest technology with laser and ultrasound to breakup and remove the cataract.​ The operation takes approximately 15 minutes, and patients can often see better immediately after the surgery.

 

Freedom from Spectacles

Utilising the latest in Extended Depth of Focus (EDOF), Multifocal Artificial Intraocular Lens technology or Blended/Mono Vision, many patients are able to be free of spectacles for both near and distance vision.
