Cataract Surgery: Solutions for Clearer Vision with Dr. Valeria Rubinstein

Cataract surgery is the most common and effective way to treat cataracts. During this procedure, the cloudy lens is removed and replaced with a clear artificial lens. Cataract surgery has a high success rate and is considered one of the safest surgeries in medicine today.

The Cataract Surgery Process

  1. Pre-Operative Consultation: Dr. Rubinstein takes time to understand your eye health and the degree of your cataract. She will discuss your options for intraocular lenses (IOLs), ensuring the one you choose meets your lifestyle needs.
  2. The Surgery: Cataract surgery is typically performed under local anesthesia. The cloudy lens is broken up using a small incision and removed, and an IOL is inserted to replace the natural lens.
  3. Post-Operative Care: After surgery, patients are usually able to go home the same day. Dr. Rubinstein provides careful follow-up care to monitor healing and ensure the best possible outcome.

Customized IOL Options: A Perfect Fit for Your Vision

One of the most important aspects of cataract surgery is the choice of intraocular lens (IOL) that will replace the cloudy lens. Dr. Rubinstein offers a variety of IOL options that can be customized to each patient’s needs. Some of the IOL options include:

  • Monofocal IOLs: These are designed to provide clear vision at one specific distance (near, intermediate, or far). They are ideal for patients who are content with wearing glasses for specific tasks after surgery.
  • Multifocal IOLs: These lenses offer multiple points of focus, allowing patients to see clearly at different distances without the need for glasses.
  • Toric IOLs: If you have astigmatism, toric IOLs are designed to correct this condition and provide better visual clarity.
