Did You Know?

In Singapore, Cataracts Affect
4 in 5 Elderly Patients

About 64% of people will develop some form of cataract by their mid-60s, and that number climbs to 95% for those aged 75 and above. Despite cataracts being a common eye condition, early treatment can effectively restore vision.

Types of Cataract Treatment We Offer

We offer two advanced cataract treatments: Phacoemulsification, which uses ultrasound to remove the cloudy lens through a small incision, and Bladeless Cataract Surgery, a laser-assisted technique that enhances precision and safety. Both options provide excellent visual outcomes and fast recovery.

Phacoemulsification

Phacoemulsification is the name for conventional cataract surgery. Your Singapore cataract surgeon creates a small incision in your cornea by hand with a blade. A tiny tool emits sound waves to break up the cataract, which is then gently removed.

Bladeless Cataract Surgery

The FDA-approved LenSx® laser system, based on the same femtosecond technology used in bladeless LASIK procedures, captures precise, hi-res images of the eyes. This allows for accurate, blade-free corneal incisions and cataract removal for enhanced safety and comfort.

Our Advanced Lens Options

During cataract surgery, the cloudy natural lens is replaced with a clear artificial one, called an intraocular lens (IOL). Two advanced options are Extended Depth of Focus (EDOF) lenses and Trifocal lenses.

EDOF

EDOF

EDOF lenses provide smooth vision from far to intermediate distances, ideal for driving, computer use, and daily tasks. Reading glasses may still be needed for fine print, but patients often notice fewer night-time glares or halos.

EDOF

Trifocal

Trifocal lenses offer clear near, intermediate, and far vision, reducing the need for glasses across most activities. Some patients may notice glare or halos in low light, but many value the greater independence from glasses.

Which Lens Is Right for You?

The best choice depends on your eye health, lifestyle, and what matters most to you day to day. EDOF lenses suit those who prioritise sharp night vision and mid-range clarity. Trifocal lenses are best if you want the widest freedom from glasses.
