Cataracts
Description
Cataracts, often referred to as "cloudy lens," "lens opacity," or "foggy vision," are a common eye condition where the eye’s natural lens becomes cloudy, leading to blurred or hazy eyesight that can make daily activities like reading or driving difficult. This gradual change is most often related to aging but can develop due to factors such as diabetes, previous eye injuries, or prolonged exposure to sunlight. Other terms people use include "blurry lens" or "clouded eye," reflecting how vision feels as if you’re looking through a frosted or dirty window. While cataracts can cause symptoms like glare, poor night vision, increased light sensitivity, and faded colors, they are highly treatable. Safe and advanced cataract surgery options—especially in leading destinations like South Korea—can restore clear vision and improve overall quality of life, making effective treatment both accessible and reliable for patients worldwide.

Vision Correction Procedures LASIK Surgery: A popular refractive surgery to correct vision by reshaping the cornea using a laser. This procedure helps treat nearsightedness, farsightedness, and astigmatism. LASEK Surgery: Similar to LASIK, this procedure also reshapes the cornea to correct vision. LASEK is preferred for patients with thin corneas as it involves creating a thinner flap. SMILE Surgery: A minimally invasive procedure that uses a laser to create a disc-shaped piece of tissue within the cornea, which is then removed through a small incision. This procedure is for correcting myopia and mild astigmatism. Lens Implant Procedures ICL (Implantable Collamer Lens): This procedure involves implanting a Collamer lens inside the eye for those who are not suitable candidates for LASIK. It’s used to correct moderate to severe nearsightedness. Multifocal Lens Implants: Designed to correct presbyopia and provide a full range of vision from near to far distances. This procedure can reduce or eliminate the need for reading glasses or bifocals post-surgery. Cataract Surgery Premium Cataract Surgery: Uses advanced technology such as ZEISS SUITE & Z8 laser for ultra-precision surgery to remove the cloudy lens and replace it with a clear artificial lens.
