Frequently Asked Question About Cataract Surgery
Efficacy
 |
To what extent will vision be restored after cataract surgery? |
 |
Without the haze and glare due to cataracts, patients will have improved vision after surgery. Patients with a preexisting astigmatism may have some troubles with vision after surgery because of the residual astigmatism, which may be corrected by LASIK a few months following cataract surgery. |
|
Prior to undergoing cataract surgery, is it possible for patients to verify how well they will be able to see after the surgery? |
|
The impaired vision due to the opacity from cataracts prevents patients from being able to check how well they will be able to see after surgery. |
