Laser Cataract Surgery in South Carolina

Cataract surgery is one of the most successful operations performed around the world today. It is also one of the most common. A cataract is nothing more than the human lens that has become clouded as a result of age, medications, trauma, inflammation, or a variety of other causes. Cataracts can cause vision problems. The approach to this problem is to remove the clouded lens and replace it with a clear, man-made, lens prosthesis called a lens implant. This implant serves to take the place of the lens that was removed.

For more than 95 years, the surgeons at Medicus Eye Group have set the standard for excellence in cataract and lens replacement surgery. We are committed to the latest technology to provide the best care for our patients.

Exciting advancements have been made in laser-assisted cataract surgery, such as the CATALYS femtosecond laser. The laser is customized for each patient and can be used to treat astigmatism to achieve better vision without glasses. The CATALYS laser can also be used to perform some of the steps of cataract surgery and to soften the cataract so less energy is required to remove it. Combining CATALYS laser treatment with advanced technology intraocular lenses can reduce the need for glasses after cataract surgery. If you are considering cataract surgery, ask your physician if the CATALYS laser at Medicus Eye Group would benefit you. Your surgeon will determine if you are a candidate and provide a personalized treatment plan for your vision goals.
