Phacoemulsification is the gold standard in cataract surgery because it is safeS and effective, and recovery time is rapid. During phacoemulsification surgery, the surgeon makes a small incision in the cornea and uses ultrasound energy to break up the lens fog. The broken lenses are then removed from the eye with a pipette. After removing the lens, the surgeon will insert a new lens, called an intraocular lens (IOL).
Phacoemulsification has many advantages over other types of cataract surgery:
Small incisions: Phacoemulsification can be done with just one incision. The surgery takes 2-3 months. finished. This results in less surgery and faster recovery times.
Less discomfort: Phacoemulsification is a painless procedure. Patients may experience some discomfort during the procedure, but this is usually well controlled with anesthesia.
Visibly good results: For most patients, phacoemulsification surgery can provide good visible results. Most patients can see a significant improvement in vision within a few days after surgery.
Low risk of complications: Phacoemulsification is a very safe method. However, as with any surgery, there is a small risk of complications such as infection, bleeding, and swelling.
Phacoemulsification surgery is a valid option for most cataract patients. However, in some cases, another type of cataract surgery may be necessary, for example, if the patient has severe cataracts or serious eye problems.
