Phacoemulsification cataract surgery at Machve Hospital is a modern, minimally invasive procedure designed to restore clear vision with precision and safety. This advanced technique uses ultrasonic energy to gently break the cloudy natural lens (cataract) into tiny fragments, which are then removed through a very small incision. A high-quality artificial intraocular lens (IOL) is implanted in its place, helping patients regain sharp and natural vision. The procedure is quick, usually completed within 15–20 minutes, and is performed under local anesthesia.
Our experienced ophthalmologists use state-of-the-art equipment and advanced diagnostic tools to ensure excellent surgical outcomes. Phacoemulsification offers faster recovery, minimal discomfort, and reduced risk of complications compared to traditional cataract surgery. At Machve Hospital, personalized lens options are available based on your lifestyle and visual needs, ensuring optimal results and improved quality of life.
