A cataract is the clouding of your natural lens. It causes blurry vision, difficulty reading and glare when driving.
Cataract surgery replaces your cloudy lens with a clear, advanced one, allowing you to regain vibrant vision and take back control of your daily life. Mr Mitry has treated thousands of patients and will discuss in detail with you the different lens choices available.

Benefits:

  • Exceptional results: Over 90% of patients achieve excellent distance vision (20/25 or better) without glasses.
  • Patient satisfaction: Cataract surgery boasts high satisfaction rates with minimal complications.
  • Efficient procedure: The surgery is quick, typically under 30 minutes, and you can return home the same day.
  • Rapid recovery: Many patients experience improved vision as early as the next day, with a smooth and swift recovery.
  • Long-term solution: The advanced lens implanted during surgery is permanent and requires no replacement.

Considerations:

  • Your suitability depends on your individual lifestyle and visual goals, and we are here to guide you in making the best choice.
Modern cataract surgery is the most commonly performed elective operation globally. Despite every effort, in rare situations, complications can occur. The risk of a complication is significantly lower if the operation is performed by an experienced surgeon and if the complication is managed appropriately. The following are notable risks of cataract or refractive lens exchange surgery:

  • 1 in 1000 (0.001%) risk of a serious complication such as an infection within the eye (which can occur a few days after the surgery) or bleeding within the eye (which can occur at the time of surgery).
  • 1 in 100 (1%) patients may require a second operation on the same eye. This may be to re-position or insert an intraocular lens. Occasionally the lens can’t be placed in the eye at the time of initial surgery and requires a second operation to do so.
  • 1 in 10 (10%) patients can develop a membrane over the new intraocular lens. This is called posterior capsular opacification. This can result in vision becoming blurry again. If this does occur it can be treated by a simple outpatient laser procedure called a YAG laser capsulotomy.

In this video Danny Mitry explains the risks further

Lens choice is one of the most important decisions for your surgery. Measurements (known as biometry) are taken prior to the surgery in order to ensure that the correct lens implant is used. This usually allows the surgeon to aim for a particular focus for the eye post-operatively. During your consultation, Mr Mitry will discuss with you the options available, which may be best suited to your visual requirements.

A standard (monofocal) lens implant will correct your distance vision as clearly as possible. Some people have some astigmatism, which means the cornea is more oval in shape than average. A toric lens will be required to treat astigmatism to provide properly focused vision. Many patients with monofocal lens implants benefit from monovision. This is where one eye is set for distance vision and the other for more near vision. This improves intermediate and near vision (particularly computer use) and in some cases individuals do not need reading glasses at all, however, not all patients are well suited to this correction.

Multifocal lenses can provide a far greater range of focus. Trifocal lenses target near, intermediate and distance vision and between 80-90% of people are spectacle-free with trifocal lenses. However, not all patients can tolerate multifocal IOLs equally well. Due to the optical design of these lenses, some patients may experience side effects such as halos around light sources, particularly at night. A small proportion of people may require reading glasses for some tasks. The potential downside of trifocal lenses is a comprise in the quality of distance vision as well as optical side effects (glare and haloes), particularly at night.

Extended Depth of Focus Lenses (EDoF) lenses let you see clearly at far and intermediate distances. A proportion of patients will however need reading glasses for certain print sizes. They provide greater spectacle independence than monofocal lenses, while inducing less visual side effects compared to trifocal lenses. This balance of increased spectacle independence and less visual phenomena is particularly attractive to patients with an active lifestyle, who wish to be spectacle- free for most of their daily activities but are more sensitive to halos and glare.

Your eye may feel a little sore after surgery and it can be a bit red. Patients often feel like they have a gritty feeling for several days after surgery. Some patients do not feel any discomfort. Your vision will improve in the initial days following surgery and will continue to stabilise in the subsequent weeks.

Do cataracts and reading glasses hold you back?

For many over 60, cataracts and the hassle of reading glasses can make everyday tasks frustrating and life less enjoyable. But it doesn’t have to be this way

You struggle with cloudy vision

Do you find it harder to see clearly, especially in low light or bright sunlight? Cataracts cause a gradual loss of clarity, leaving the world looking hazy and colours less vibrant.

Glasses feel like a constant obstacle

Switching between glasses for reading, driving, or simply looking at a menu can feel exhausting and impractical. These interruptions interfere with your lifestyle and independence.

This transformative procedure removes cataracts and offers options to reduce your reliance on glasses, allowing you to enjoy crystal-clear vision at all distances.

You miss the simple joys of life

Academic resources on cataract surgery

Cataracts, a clouding of the lens in your eye, can affect your vision, causing mistiness, glare, and faded colors. This comprehensive guide from RNIB provides essential information about cataracts, including their causes, symptoms, and treatment options. It explains how cataract surgery restores vision by replacing the cloudy lens with a clear artificial one. With advice on recovery, potential complications, and tips for daily activities post-surgery, this resource ensures you’re well-informed. Click here to learn more

Posterior Capsule Opacification (PCO) is a common complication following cataract surgery. It occurs when the natural lens capsule, left intact to hold the artificial intraocular lens (IOL), becomes cloudy due to cell growth. This clouding can cause blurred vision, glare, and reduced contrast sensitivity, resembling the original cataract symptoms. Fortunately, PCO is treatable with a quick, painless procedure called YAG laser capsulotomy. During this treatment, a laser creates a small opening in the cloudy capsule, restoring clear vision almost immediately. Regular follow-ups after cataract surgery help detect and address PCO early, ensuring optimal visual outcomes. Click here to learn more
