AWESOME Cataract Eye Surgery Animation
This 3D medical animation depicts the phacoemulsification and extracapsular removal of a cloudy lens, and the placement of an artificial lens.
The lens of the eye is responsible for focusing images onto the back of the eye. It is normally transparent. As a normal part of aging, the lens begins to cloud and causes a gradual, painless loss in vision. Cataract removal is most often performed to better examine the back of the eye when monitoring for damage from certain diseases such as diabetes or glaucoma and to improve vision. There are two main types of cataract removal. The large majority of cataract surgeries are performed using the phacoemulsification technique. During the phacoemulsification technique an ultrasound probe breaks the cloudy lens into tiny fragments. The fragments are vacuumed out through a tiny incision. An intraocular lens implant is then inserted to replace the natural lens that was removed. Because the incision is tiny, stitches are often not necessary and visual improvement is usually noted relatively soon after surgery. During the extracapsular technique the cataract is removed as one entire piece. This requires a larger incision and stitches. An intraocular lens implant (artificial lens) is inserted to replace the natural lens that was removed. Recovery is usually slower, due to the larger incision. The stitches sometimes need to be removed, which is usually done in the office. After both procedures, the surgeon usually places a patch over the eye. ANCE00193

When you get to the …
When you get to the hospital they dilate your eyes a couple times then when your in surgery you can either choose anesthesia/sleeping gas or a shot to make you fall asleep then they cut into your cornea and insert the new lens after you will either have stitches but it itches fairly bad. dont itch it or the new stitches will come out opening the cut your doctor made. enabling you to have eye infections and re undergo the stitching process

you will still need glasses for reading, unless you have had private surgery. in private surgery, the fake lens that goes into your eye actually has focusing power for distance and reading - so you don’t need glasses for reading either.

cataract surgery …
cataract surgery removes a cloudy lens and replaces it with a clear lens implant. this implant will also replace the need to wear glasses.

Be concerned about your safety! Avoid the complications of Lasik by being prepared which you can do by checking out a site like safelasikguide [ . ] com or something similar and read everything you can before even thinking about getting the surgery!

I would have to be given a general anesthetic were I ever to have to have any sort of eye surgery. I cannot handle general eye exams, and I’ve passed out from anxiety. I could more happily let my right arm be amputated sans medication than let someone touch my eye! Yikes…
