Introduction
Do you find yourself squinting at familiar faces? Are night drives becoming a struggle due to glare and blurry lights? These could be signs of a cataract — a common yet treatable eye condition. Thankfully, modern cataract surgery offers a permanent fix and restores your clear vision in no time.
At MediEND, we help patients across India access safe, affordable, and expert-led cataract surgery with end-to-end support. From the first consultation to post-surgical care, we ensure your treatment is smooth, transparent, and stress-free.
What is a Cataract?
A cataract is the clouding of the natural lens inside your eye, which causes blurred or dim vision. It typically occurs due to aging, but can also result from eye injuries, diabetes, prolonged steroid use, or genetic factors.
Common Symptoms of Cataracts:
Blurred or hazy vision
Sensitivity to light and glare
Difficulty seeing at night
Faded colors
Frequent changes in eyeglass prescription
Seeing halos around lights
Left untreated, cataracts can lead to significant vision loss and affect your daily life.
When Do You Need Cataract Surgery?
Mild cataracts may not need immediate surgery. But if your vision issues interfere with routine tasks like reading, working, or driving, it’s time to consider surgery.
At MediEND, we guide you with a complete eye evaluation and honest advice on when surgery is necessary.
What is Cataract Surgery?
Cataract surgery is a simple, outpatient procedure where the cloudy lens of the eye is removed and replaced with an artificial clear lens, known as an intraocular lens (IOL). The surgery is quick, painless, and highly successful.
How Cataract Surgery Works:
Local anesthesia is used to numb the eye
A tiny incision is made to remove the cloudy lens
A clear artificial lens is implanted
The incision heals naturally—no stitches needed
The entire process usually takes 15 to 30 minutes, and most patients return home the same day.
Types of Cataract Surgery
1. Phacoemulsification (Phaco Surgery)
This is the most common method. An ultrasonic device breaks the cloudy lens into pieces, which are then removed and replaced with an IOL.
2. Femtosecond Laser-Assisted Cataract Surgery
A more precise, bladeless approach using advanced laser technology for incisions and lens removal. Offers quicker recovery and higher accuracy.
3. Extracapsular Cataract Extraction (ECCE)
Used in cases of very dense cataracts, this method involves a larger incision and manual removal of the lens.
MediEND connects you with expert surgeons skilled in all modern cataract techniques and helps choose the best option for your eyes.
Types of Intraocular Lenses (IOLs)
Choosing the right IOL after cataract surgery is crucial. Your lifestyle, budget, and vision goals all influence this decision.
Popular IOL Options at MediEND:
Monofocal Lenses – Clear vision at one distance (usually far)
Multifocal Lenses – Clarity at both near and far distances
Toric Lenses – Corrects cataract and astigmatism
Aspheric Lenses – Offers better contrast, especially in low light
Our doctors will guide you through the best IOL for your needs and budget.
