What is a cataract?

A cataract is a clouding of the eye's natural lens that develops with age, causing blurry vision, glare, faded colors, and difficulty seeing at night. Cataracts are extremely common and, left untreated, are a leading cause of vision loss, but cataract surgery is one of the safest and most successful procedures in all of medicine.

How cataract surgery works

During cataract surgery, your surgeon removes the clouded natural lens using phacoemulsification and replaces it with a clear artificial intraocular lens (IOL). The procedure takes about 15 minutes per eye, is virtually painless, and is performed on an outpatient basis at our dedicated surgical center.

Premium lens options

Cataract surgery is also an opportunity to reduce your dependence on glasses. We offer a full range of premium intraocular lenses:

  • Monofocal, excellent, crisp vision at one distance
  • Toric, corrects astigmatism for sharper distance vision
  • Extended depth of focus (EDOF), a smooth range from distance through intermediate
  • Multifocal, clear vision at near, intermediate, and far

Does insurance cover cataract surgery?

Most insurance plans, including Medicare, cover medically necessary cataract surgery. Premium lens upgrades may carry an additional cost, and we offer financing to make them affordable. Call (559) 449-5050 to verify your specific plan.
