What is a Cataract Surgery?

Cataract surgery is an operation to remove your eye’s lens when it is cloudy. Having a cataract can be like looking through a foggy or dusty car windshield. Things may look blurry, hazy or less colourful.

The only way to remove a cataract is with surgery. the ophthalmologist will recommend removing a cataract when it keeps you from doing things you want or needs to do. During cataract surgery, your cloudy natural lens is removed and replaced with a clear artificial lens. That lens is called an intraocular lens (IOL).

What Are the Side Effects of Cataract Surgery?

Side effects are rare after cataract surgery, but in some cases, patients may experience:

Eye infection or swelling
Bleeding
Retinal detachment (separation of retina from back of eye)
Drooping eyelid
Temporary rise in eye pressure within 12–24 hours

After Cataract Surgery Care

For a few days after surgery, your eye may itch or feel sore. Mild tearing and sensitivity to bright light are normal.

Your doctor will prescribe eye drops to prevent infection. Avoid driving, bending, lifting heavy objects, or putting pressure on the eye for a few days.

During the first week, you may need to wear an eye shield while sleeping. Most patients recover fully within 6–8 weeks, and over 90% experience improved vision. Glasses may still be required in some cases.
