Cataract Treatment Options

Microincisional Cataract Surgery

This procedure uses ultrasound energy to liquify the cataract and remove it from the eye through a wound less than 3 mm in size. An artificial lens will then be implanted to restore vision. No stitches (sutures) are required, as the wound often heals on its own, allowing faster recovery and less pain and trauma.

Femtosecond – Laser-Assisted Cataract Surgery (FLACS)

This procedure uses the same technology as LASIK, called a femtosecond laser, to create the surgical wounds and fragment the cataract before using ultrasound to liquify the fragments. It is best for complex cataracts, is not painful, and offers several benefits, such as highly precise lens positioning.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Is cataract surgery painful or scary?

No they are not.

Cataract surgeries are generally painless with most people feeling no or minimal discomfort during surgery.

At Lumin Eye Specialists, we are dedicated in our care and ensuring a comfortable experience. Effective anaesthesia the form of numbing eye drops, small injection around the eye, sedation or general anaesthesia may be given depending on your needs. There is minimal downtime after the surgery.

Do cataracts return after surgery?

Cataracts do not return after surgery. However, some patients may experience progressive cloudiness of the lens months to years after the surgery, affecting their vision. This is called posterior capsular opacity and the treatment is a simple laser cleaning procedure known as YAG capsulotomy. This procedure is painless and does not require a surgery.

Is cataract surgery Medisave and Insurance claimable?

Singaporeans and Permanent residents can use $2,450 of their own Medisave, or their immediate family member’s Medisave, to offset the cost of surgery. For insurance policy holders, the amount claimable will depend on your policy. At Lumin Eye Specialist, our team will guide you through the claims process.
