Are Cataract Surgery and Operations Available at This Hospital?

Hello,

Yes, cataract surgery is available at many HexaHealth partner hospitals across different cities in India. We can help you connect with experienced eye specialists and trusted hospitals for cataract evaluation, surgery, and follow-up care.

Cataracts occur when the natural lens of the eye becomes cloudy, leading to blurred vision, glare, difficulty reading, or trouble seeing at night. Cataract surgery is one of the most commonly performed and effective eye procedures to restore clear vision.

What Is Cataract Surgery?

Cataract surgery is a procedure in which the cloudy natural lens of the eye is removed and replaced with an artificial intraocular lens (IOL). The surgery is usually performed as a daycare procedure, which means most patients can go home on the same day.

The procedure is generally safe and is performed by an ophthalmologist (eye specialist).

Common Symptoms of Cataracts

You should consult an eye specialist if you experience

• Blurred or cloudy vision

• Difficulty seeing at night

• Increased sensitivity to light

• Glare or halos around lights

• Frequent changes in eyeglass number

• Faded or dull colours

• Difficulty reading or driving

An eye examination can confirm whether cataracts are causing your symptoms.

Types of Cataract Surgery

Depending on your eye condition, the doctor may recommend

• Phacoemulsification (Phaco Surgery) – A commonly performed minimally invasive procedure using ultrasound technology.

• Laser-Assisted Cataract Surgery – Performed with laser support in selected cases.

• Small Incision Cataract Surgery (SICS) – Recommended in some situations based on the patient’s condition.

The eye specialist will suggest the most suitable technique after examining your eyes.

Before surgery, the doctor recommend

• Comprehensive eye examination
