Cataract surgery with laser (Femto-Phako)
The dawn of a new era: Laser treatment for cataracts
Surgery without a scalpel
This new laser technology allows for even more precise and accurate treatment than traditional standard surgery. Important steps of the operation are computer-assisted and performed with consistent precision—far more exact than what the human hand can achieve. Studies show that laser surgery significantly improves the safety of the procedure and the accuracy of the results compared to manual surgical methods. Through the use of femtosecond lasers, it is possible in many cases to reduce or even correct corneal astigmatism.

Glasses and contact lens wearers over 45 know how difficult the transition to progressive lenses can be. Modern multifocal lenses can also correct presbyopia. This largely eliminates the need for reading glasses. In addition to clear vision at both near and far distances, this treatment has another advantage: after refractive lens exchange, patients do not have to worry about developing cataracts, as the artificial lens cannot become cloudy.
