Cataract Care at Suraj Eye Institute
Cataract — the age-related clouding of the natural lens — is the leading cause of reversible blindness worldwide and the most common cause of vision loss after the age of 50. Modern cataract surgery is among the safest and most successful operations in medicine.
At Suraj Eye Institute we offer the complete spectrum of cataract services: precise pre-operative biometry with the Heidelberg Anterion, modern phacoemulsification, manual small-incision cataract surgery (MSICS), paediatric cataract surgery, and a full range of premium intraocular lenses (IOLs) from Alcon, Johnson & Johnson, Bausch & Lomb and Rayner — all personalised to each patient’s visual goals.
Our refractive goal. Wherever possible, our aim is to give you 6/6 distance vision and N/6 near vision without glasses. The right IOL choice — decided together with you during your consultation — makes this achievable for most patients.
