Overview of Laser Cataract Surgery

UltraView ReLACS™ is a technology that significantly enhances the precision and safety of cataract surgery. What sets UltraView ReLACS™ apart is its exceptional precision, driven by advanced technology. I will ensure that you receive brochures that give you more detailed information during your consultation.

Initial Recovery Period

The recovery period for this procedure is short. Patients generally come in for a post-operative check just one week after surgery. Another follow-up appointment might be necessary depending on the type of lenses used during your cataract surgery.

Post-Surgery Care Instructions

We have implemented a comprehensive program to ensure clear communication regarding pre- and post-surgical instructions for all of our patients. Recently, we have created updated videos and written instruction sheets to further ensure your success following the surgery.

Managing Pain and Discomfort

Pain or discomfort is exceptionally minimal, if any, during the recovery period. It's important to note that pain perception is subjective, so we can never promise zero pain, but it's generally very low after lens replacement surgery.

Expected Visual Improvements

Vision improvements from cataract surgery are significant, especially if the cataracts were severe. Many of our patients feel like they can see clearly again after cataract surgery.

Follow-Up Appointments

A follow-up involves a post-operative check one week after the surgery to ensure everything is healing as it should be.

Restrictions and Activities to Avoid

Avoid strenuous activities such as heavy lifting and intense exercise and wear protective glasses outdoors to avoid complications after your cataract surgery.
