Cataract Surgery

A medical specialist who undertakes Cataract Surgery is called an

Ophthalmologist

. As people age, the lens of the eye can become ‘cloudy’, covered with an opaque film, affecting sight. Cataract surgery involves removal of the entire

clouded lens

(the

cataract

), usually followed by replacement of the lens with an artificial intraocular lens (IOL) made of plastic, silicone, acrylic or other material.
