Dr. Bala Ambati and his team at Roseburg Surgery Center perform monofocal, multifocal, and toric IOL surgery, depending on your needs and preferences.
Roseburg Surgery Center encourages you to schedule an examination with an ophthalmologist if you start experiencing symptoms like blurry vision and difficulty seeing at night. The clinic points out that early detection is crucial to prevent further vision loss and gets you the help you need before it starts having severe effects on your quality of life.
While children and adults can have cataracts, it's primarily an age-related condition that occurs when the protein in the eye's natural lens breaks down and forms clumps. In fact, half of Americans aged 80 or over have cataracts or have had surgery to treat it, according to the National Eye Institute.
The institute highlights preventative measures, like protecting the eyes from sunlight and not smoking. If you need IOL surgery, you can find comfort in that 9 out of 10 people can see better after the procedure.
Roseburg Surgery Center explains that the IOL is a multi-step surgery that includes making a small incision in the cornea, removing the cataract, and inserting the artificial lens. The incision usually closes naturally without the need for stitches, and the procedure takes approximately 30 minutes.
Monofocal is the most common type of IOL surgery that gives the patient clear vision at one distance, either far or near. Multifocal IOLs can reduce the need for glasses as they provide clarity at multiple distances, whereas toric IOLs are suitable if you have astigmatism.
The procedures are performed with local anesthesia, and most patients experience minimal discomfort. To ensure safe healing, you should follow the ophthalmologist's aftercare instructions, which often include using eye drops and wearing an eye shield. Most patients start seeing results after a few days but can expect the full healing process to take several weeks.
In addition to cataract surgery, Roseburg Surgery Center offers glaucoma and laser eye surgery, foot and ankle repair, pain implants and stimulators in collaboration with its partner clinics.
