A cataract is a clouding of the natural lens in the eye that affects vision. It is one of the most common eye conditions worldwide, especially among people above the age of 50. The clouding happens when proteins in the lens break down and clump together, forming a cloudy area that prevents clear images from reaching the retina. If left untreated, cataracts can lead to severe vision loss and blindness.

Recognising cataract symptoms early can help you seek timely treatment. Common symptoms include:
2.2 Mm Phaco Surgery (Phacoemulsification) is the most modern and preferred technique for cataract removal. In this procedure, a tiny 2.2 mm incision is made in the eye, through which an ultrasound probe is inserted to break the cloudy lens into microscopic fragments. These fragments are gently suctioned out, and a foldable intraocular lens (IOL) is implanted through the same small incision.
This advanced technique offers several advantages over traditional cataract surgery:

Cataract surgery can be performed at any age when the cataract starts affecting your daily activities like reading, driving, or working. While cataracts are more common in people above 50, younger patients can also undergo surgery if needed. The decision is based on your vision needs and overall eye health.
No, 2.2 Mm Phaco Surgery is virtually painless. The procedure is performed under local anaesthesia using numbing eye drops. You will be awake but will not feel any pain. Most patients experience only mild discomfort that resolves quickly.
Most patients experience improved vision within 24 to 48 hours after surgery. Complete healing takes about 4 to 6 weeks. You can resume normal daily activities within a few days, but you should avoid heavy lifting, swimming, and rubbing your eyes for at least 2 weeks.
Cataracts cannot come back because the cloudy natural lens is completely removed. However, some patients may develop a condition called posterior capsule opacification (PCO) months or years after surgery, which causes similar symptoms. This is easily treated with a quick, painless laser procedure called YAG capsulotomy.
The cost of cataract surgery varies depending on the type of intraocular lens (IOL) chosen and the technique used. At Dr Jyothi's Eye Hospital, we offer affordable and transparent pricing. We also accept insurance and cashless claims. Please contact us at +91 73373 56570 for a detailed quote based on your specific needs.
