Cataract Surgery
Overview
Cataract, a clouding of the eye’s crystalline lens, is one of the most common causes of vision loss that requires surgical treatment. Cleveland Clinic Abu Dhabi’s Integrated Surgical Institute offers patients with cataracts the opportunity to be treated by experienced surgeons who use the most advanced technologies, including the newest surgical techniques available anywhere in the world.
Refractive error is an optical disorder of the eye that can be compensated for by wear of glasses or contact lenses. Refractive lens exchange is a procedure in which the eye’s natural lens, before the development of cataract, is replaced with an intraocular lens to correct refractive errors and improve vision. It can significantly reduce or completely eliminate the need for glasses.
