Operations on patients having cataract

Operations of cataract have history begining ages ago. However, the first turning point was crioextraction of cataract, introduced in the 60s of the XX century by professor Krwawicz from Lublin. Another milestep i surgery of cataract was the introduction of artificial intraocular lens by professor Riedley, as well as the phacoemulsification started im the USA in the 80s of th XX century. Nowadays, this kind of operations is practically the only acknowledged in the world. 

In our practice during phacoemulsification we use modern machines made by AMO (www.amo-inc.com) as the first equipped with the White Star system, which significantly minimises the risk of complications. During the operation we typically use the tunnel cut i the eye’s cornea 2,75mm.

In cases quallified to this we use the method, so called double-hand fako from cut 1,8mm (e.g.:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m22gzq6Rw2Q). In the place after the removed len (cataract) we implant Acreos Adapt lens (read more:http://www.bausch.co.uk/en_UK/ecp/surgical/product/cataract/akreos_adapt.aspx), or Tecnis lens (read more:http://www.tecnisiol.com/patient.htm).

As one of the few in Poland we offer to our patients the ability to choose the multifocal lens, which make them able to see smoothly from the near points (app. 30cm.) up to the infinity, immitating the healthy vision of a young eye. In our assortment we suggest: Tenis Multifocal (read more:http://www.supersightsurgery.com/index.php?lay=show&ac=article&Id=355553&Ntype=4), Rezoom (read more:http://www.rezoomiol.com/) and ReStor (read more:http://www.acrysofrestor.com).
