Hobart Eye Surgeons

Laser Cataract Surgery In suitable patients, up to two thirds of cataract procedures are now performed by LenSx at our practice. Patients are choosing LenSx due to its added precision and reliability. Other reasons include the state of the art technology, its application and the comfort and ease of the procedure. The procedure using LenSx is being proven to be as safe as conventional cataract surgery. A significant Australian trial of 1400 participants showed that it is safer than all published trials of cataract surgery under key indices. The eye receives less wear and tear from this procedure as less internal energy is utilised du********* dures. The surgery experience only differs slightly from standard surgery. The laser treatment is performed in a dedicated laser room. The laser interface docks painlessly onto the anaesthetised eye and the procedure takes only two minutes in total. We then move into the operating theatre where the procedure is completed in the usual way. Post op results are positive with patients being very happy with the procedure and outcomes. Laser cataract surgery has allowed eye surgeons to substitute the first three manual steps of the operation. These three steps include the surgical incisions to the cornea, the formation of the capsulotomy and the gradual fragmentation of the original lens. Traditionally, surgeons would use a hand-held metal or diamond blade to make the incision where the sclera meets the cornea. However, laser technology now provide surgeons with a sophisticated 3-D image of the eye ********* raphy). The image ensures the incision will be of a precise location, length and depth. The technology removes the variability of surgeon practice, improves incision accuracy and may reduce the risk of infection
