Advanced Phacoemulsification
Cataract Surgery
Bhakti Netralaya performs cataract surgery exclusively using Phacoemulsification — the gold standard, most advanced technique in modern ophthalmology. This method allows for stitch-free, virtually painless removal of the cataract through a microincision of just 2.2 to 2.8 millimetres, with rapid visual recovery and minimal post-operative restrictions.
How It Works
The Science Behind
Phacoemulsification
Phacoemulsification uses high-frequency ultrasound energy delivered through a fine probe to break the cloudy lens into microscopic fragments. These fragments are simultaneously aspirated (suctioned) out of the eye. The entire natural lens capsule is preserved as a stable pocket to hold the replacement IOL in perfect position.
The procedure is performed under topical anaesthesia — eye drops only, with no injections around the eye in most cases — meaning patients remain comfortable throughout. Surgery is performed under a surgical microscope with magnification and illumination that allows the surgeon to work with extraordinary precision.
