Cataract is a condition where the natural lens inside the eye loses its transparency over time, leading to a decline in visual quality. Patients with cataracts perceive objects as if they are looking through a foggy window.
Gradual loss of vision, frequent changes in eyeglass prescription, dulling of colors, double vision, and glare from lights at night are the most common symptoms of cataracts.
Cataracts can also occur in individuals who have used corticosteroid medications for a long time, infants, those who have experienced physical trauma to the eye, and people with diabetes.
Through a surgical procedure that does not cause any pain to the eye, the cloudy lens is replaced with an artificial lens that is compatible with the eye's structure. After a half-hour operation at our eye center, patients are discharged on the same day.
Smart lenses used in the treatment of cataracts can also address vision impairments at near, far, and intermediate distances. Smart lenses are classified into three groups: Monofocal (single focus), Bifocal (dual focus), and Trifocal (three focus). Trifocal lenses, which are effective in both the treatment of cataracts and the correction of near, far, and intermediate distance vision impairments, eliminate the need for patients to wear glasses.
