Can you tweak lifestyle cataract surgery with laser vision correction?

Are you considering lifestyle cataract surgery to improve your vision? This procedure can be life-changing for those suffering from cataracts, but what happens if the results aren’t as expected?

While cataract surgery is generally a very safe and effective procedure, there is a small percentage of patients who may not achieve the desired level of vision correction. In under 2% of cases, patients may still need further correction to achieve the desired outcome, which can be done with the occasional use of glasses or in rare cases, laser correction.

But don’t let this small percentage deter you from considering these procedures. In fact, 98% of patients achieve the expected visual outcome after surgery, with an overall increased level of visual acuity and vision. And in cases where further correction is needed, it’s a simple and safe process that can be done without surgery. This is a very small number of patients that need a tweak after lifestyle cataract surgery. We are talking about 2% and we still need to keep in mind that 98% of patients achieve the expected visual outcome after surgery.

At your consultation, your individual circumstances and prognosis for vision will be thoroughly discussed, so you can make an informed decision about your treatment options. And if you’re still unsure, we’re here to help. Leave us your contact information, and we’ll send you a short guide on cataract surgery, explaining what happens during the procedure and how to avoid common mistakes when considering surgery.

Don’t let cataracts hold you back from living your best life. With the help of lifestyle cataract surgery, you can achieve clearer, sharper vision and enjoy all the activities you love without limitations. Book an appointment today.
