Laser Assisted Cataract Surgery

NeoVision is the Bay Area’s premier source for Laser Cataract Surgery

By providing our patients with the latest technologies, including Multifocal and TORIC Intraocular Lenses, we are able to give our patients the best possible post-surgery vision available today. Most vision centers perform traditional cataract surgery, which leaves many patients still needing reading glasses after surgery. Our technology allows our patients to see both near and far, and without ever needing reading glasses again. The LENSX^® Laser System is an advanced femtosecond cataract laser built specifically for refractive cataract surgery and is performed by Stanford-trained Ophthalmologist Dr. Tandon.

Am I a candidate for Cataract Surgery?

Most people who are experiencing the effects of cataracts who can not have their vision improved by a simple change in prescription are candidates for cataract surgery. However, as in every surgery, your unique medical history and current health can influence your candidacy. Only an ophthalmologist can tell you for sure if cataract surgery is right for you.

Cataract Surgery Facts

CATARACT CAUSES

Cataracts mostly occur due to aging, and the majority of patients will be 65 and older. Some people are born with cataracts; others develop them due to other health issues or traumatic injuries.
CATARACT PROGRESSION

Cataracts generally develop over years, causing vision to get worse and worse as time goes on. This process can be very gradual, but varies for each individual and based on the cause of the cataracts.
HOW THE TREATMENT WORKS

A tiny cut is made on your eye that allows the surgeon to insert a tool that emulsifies the cataract. The cataract is removed and replaced with a permanent intraocular lens implant. The body heals naturally; no stitches required.

CATARACT SYMPTOMS

The most common symptoms of cataracts include blurred vision, difficulty seeing in the dark, lights seeming too bright, glare, halos, yellowing of colors, dark spots, double vision, and a frequently changing prescription.
CATARACT TREATMENTS

Unfortunately, there are no medications, eye drops, exercises, glasses, or contact lenses that can treat a cataract. Surgical removal of the cataract is the only way to restore your vision.
THE RESULTS

Cataract surgery is performed in the US millions of time each year. Over 95% of patients experience improved vision. Dr. Shobha Tandon has performed thousands of successful cataract surgeries in the Bay Area.
