Understanding Cataracts: Causes, Symptoms, and Treatments

Cataracts are one of the leading causes of vision impairment worldwide. At Diva Eye Institute, we specialize in advanced cataract treatments to restore clarity and improve quality of life.

What are Cataracts?

A cataract is the clouding of the eye’s natural lens, which can interfere with vision. It typically develops with age but can also result from trauma, diabetes, or prolonged steroid use.

Symptoms of Cataracts:

– Blurred or dim vision

– Increased sensitivity to light and glare

– Difficulty seeing at night

– Fading or yellowing of colors

Causes of Cataracts:

1. Aging: The most common cause, as proteins in the lens break down over time.

2. Injury: Eye injuries can lead to the formation of cataracts.

3. Genetics: A family history of cataracts can increase the risk.

4. Medical Conditions: Diabetes and prolonged steroid use are significant contributors. 

Advanced Treatment Options at Diva Eye Institute:

1. Phacoemulsification: A minimally invasive procedure using ultrasound to remove the cloudy lens, followed by the implantation of an artificial intraocular lens (IOL).

2. Robotic-Assisted Surgery: Precision technology ensures optimal outcomes and faster recovery.

3. Customized Lenses: We offer premium lenses, including multifocal and toric IOLs, to address specific vision needs. 

Life After Cataract Surgery

Most patients experience immediate improvement in vision post-surgery. Regular follow-ups ensure long-term success and eye health.

LASIK Treatments and SMILE Machine: Advantages of Advanced Vision Correction

At Diva Eye Institute, we understand the importance of clear vision and the role it plays in enhancing the quality of life. Our advanced LASIK treatments and state-of-the-art SMILE machine technology offer unparalleled precision and results for those seeking freedom from glasses or contact lenses.

What is LASIK and SMILE?

LASIK (Laser-Assisted In Situ Keratomileusis):  A popular refractive surgery that reshapes the cornea to correct vision problems like myopia, hyperopia, and astigmatism.

SMILE (Small Incision Lenticule Extraction): A minimally invasive procedure that uses a femtosecond laser to reshape the cornea, requiring only a small incision.

Advantages of the SMILE Machine:

1. Minimally Invasive: SMILE involves a smaller incision compared to traditional LASIK, leading to faster healing.

2. Greater Comfort: Patients report less discomfort during and after the procedure.

3. Reduced Risk of Dry Eyes: The small incision preserves more corneal nerves, reducing the likelihood of dry eye symptoms.

4. Precision: Enhanced accuracy for treating refractive errors.

5. Quick Recovery: Patients can resume normal activities within a day or two.

At Diva Eye Institute, we use the latest technology combined with the expertise of our skilled surgeons to ensure the best outcomes. Each procedure is tailored to meet the unique needs of our patients, ensuring clarity and confidence in every step.
