Looking for a cataract eye surgery depends entirely on the type of vision correction you need or want, and how much it costs. A cataract surgery is among the most successful surgeries a person can undergo. An experienced cataract eye surgeon can easily handle most cataract operation, which involve removing your eye's clouded natural lens and replacing it with a intraocular lenses.

The latest Intraocular lenses can potentially restore vision at multiple distances. If you choose multiple vision lenses, you must make sure your cataract eye doctor is experienced and qualified to perform the type of surgery required for a better vision. Depending on whether you are interested in a single-vision or multivision Intraocular lens, you will need different approaches to finding a eye surgeon who specialises in cataract operation.

Choosing a Cataract Eye Surgeon for Single Vision Procedures


Cataract surgery is so common that you must know plenty of people around you who have had the cataract operation in your area. When you need cataract operation yourself, look for a general referral. If you are looking for a single vision cataract surgery always ask about the quality of staff, billing procedure, quality of pre and post operating care, explaination of cataract surgery by eye surgeon himself, different options available for types of lenses and the outcome of cataract operation. This will help you in judging the best available facility (eye hospital).

And if you have chosen your eye hospital then feel free to consult and ask your eye doctor about the number of eye operations conducted, type of introcular lens insertions, general cleanliness and infection free environment. Also ask for pre and after cataract consultancy support available. Ask for the detailed hand outs or proper explaination pertaining to the information you need and if possible the detailed information rgarding the cataract operation itself.

Choosing a Cataract Surgeon for Multiple Vision Lenses

If you are considering cataract operation for multi vision then also remember to follow the above basic guidelines along with the following directions. Though the success rate or cataract operation is very high but any genuine cataract eye surgeon will not make any guarantees for your perfect vision. He may still suggest the usage of eyeglasses under certain circumstances. A good eye surgeon will always have post operation follow up procedures in case there is any unlikely complication involved.

Always ask for other vision enhancement surgeries like astigmatism in case you can afford the extra costs. Though it may not be required in many cases. Although there have been some major innovations in intraocular lenses and the result varies from person to person , so avoid any eye surgeon who makes false claims and take the decision based upon your needs and budget.
