Clear Vision with Phaco Cataract Surgery at ITM Hospital

Cataracts are a common eye condition that affects millions of people worldwide. It is a progressive clouding of the natural lens of the eye, which can lead to blurry or hazy vision. Cataracts can be treated with surgery, and one of the most advanced methods of cataract surgery is phacoemulsification or phaco surgery. ITM Hospital offers this state-of-the-art treatment for cataracts, providing patients with clear vision and improved quality of life.

Phacoemulsification, or phaco surgery, is a modern and highly effective technique for cataract removal. This advanced procedure utilizes ultrasound technology to break up the cloudy lens into small fragments, which are then carefully removed through a tiny incision in the eye. A new, clear intraocular lens is then implanted in its place, restoring vision. Performed under local anesthesia, the entire process takes less than 30 minutes.

At ITM Hospital, our team of highly experienced ophthalmologists specializes in phacoemulsification surgery. Equipped with cutting-edge technology, our hospital ensures that every patient receives the highest standard of care. The procedure is carried out using a state-of-the-art operating microscope and ultrasound machine, allowing for precise and safe removal of cataracts.

One of the key advantages of phaco surgery is the minimal incision size—only 2–3 mm. This small, stitch-free incision results in a minimally invasive procedure with faster recovery times and minimal discomfort. Most patients can resume their daily activities within a few days of surgery.

At ITM Hospital, we pride ourselves on delivering personalized care before, during, and after surgery. Our skilled nursing staff is dedicated to ensuring each patient's comfort and well-being.
