如果你发现视力浑浊或模糊, 灯光周围的光晕, 或者夜视能力差, 你可能得了白内障.

A cataract is a gradual thickening and hardening of the naturally transparent lens in the eye. The lens becomes clouded or opaque as it thickens, preventing light from reaching your retina. As less light reaches your retina, it becomes increasingly difficult to see.

Your surgeon will remove the cloudy lens in your eye and replace it with a substitute artificial lens, 称为人工晶状体, 或人工晶体.

Phacoemulsification (also called small incision cataract surgery)

Phacoemulsification is the most common type of cataract removal procedure. The surgeon makes a small incision on the side of the cornea—the clear, dome-shaped surface that covers the front of the eye—where a tiny probe emits ultrasound waves to soften and break up the cloudy center of the lens. The cataract is then removed by suction through the same incision.

在这个过程中, a longer incision is made on the side of the cornea to remove the hard center of the lens; the remainder of the lens is then removed by suction.

激光辅助白内障手术

作为手动切口的替代方案, the 莫兰眼科中心 also offers laser-assisted cataract surgery. Femtosecond laser assisted cataract surgery (FLACS) adds computer control to key steps of the procedure. Its unique system analyzes high-resolution OCT images of your eye; helps the surgeon to design a customized procedure; and then, visualizes and performs the procedure on command from the surgeon.

进一步提高准确度, a patient interface connects your eye to the image-guided surgical unit, so that both the femtosecond laser computer and the surgeon commanding it have precise, real-time images at all times during the laser procedure.

两种类型的镜片: 

  • 单焦透镜 - The most common type of lenses used in cataract surgery are monofocal (or single focus) lenses. These can be fitted to provide either near or distance vision—most patients opt for far vision in both eyes. 结果是, reading glasses are usually required after surgery, and glasses are sometimes required for vision at far distances as well. 这种类型的隐形眼镜是由医疗保险覆盖的.
  • 多焦镜头,高级选项 - These implants split the light coming into your eye for distance and near vision, 并大发娱乐提供最自由的眼镜. 在一些病人中, these implants can cause halos (rings around lights at night) which tend to fade four to six weeks after surgery. A corneal procedure correcting astigmatism can be performed at the same time by your doctor. Medicare provides partial coverage for these lenses.*

*病人 with certain eye conditions including glaucoma, 糖尿病性视网膜病变, 视网膜瘢痕组织, 角膜疤痕, or who previously underwent radial keratotomy, 是否不适合这种类型的镜头. Your doctor will review your examination findings to determine if you are a good candidate.

散光矫正

Your doctor can use laser reshaping of the cornea or an astigmatism-correcting lens implant to treat your astigmatism at the time of cataract removal. Astigmatism occurs when the cornea (front window) of the eye is shaped more like a football than a sphere. 如果你有角膜散光, leaving it untreated would mean you would need glasses for both distance and near vision after cataract removal.

高级选项:可调节透镜植入物

These implants change position within your eye based on your eye muscle effort. Accommodating lenses can treat astigmatism, but give slightly less near power than multifocal lenses. They are typically used in patients who are ineligible for multifocals due to mild or moderate glaucoma, 糖尿病性视网膜病变, 视网膜瘢痕组织, 角膜疤痕, 或之前的桡骨角膜切开术. Medicare provides partial coverage for these lenses.

后白内障

什么是术后白内障?

After cataract surgery, your vision can become cloudy due to what is known as an after-cataract. 在这种情况下, 后囊, 是什么使镜片固定, 变得浑浊,可能会模糊你的视力. An after-cataract can develop months or even years after surgery.

YAG激光治疗

An after-cataract is treated by a technique called YAG laser capsulotomy. Your doctor uses a laser beam to create a tiny hole in 后囊 to let light pass through. 这是一种无痛的门诊手术.
