Post-Cataract Laser Treatment
Restoring Clarity after Cataract Surgery
Experiencing blurred vision, glare, or halos after cataract surgery?
At Apex Eye Associates, we aim to ensure good vision after cataract surgery. We offer YAG capsulotomy, a laser procedure that treats post-surgical blurry vision due to posterior capsular opacification. Learn how our expert ophthalmologists can help restore clarity to your vision.
Understanding Posterior Capsular Opacification
Posterior capsular opacification (PCO) is a common complication that can occur after cataract surgery. It happens when the clear posterior capsule, which holds the artificial lens implant in place, becomes cloudy or thickened. YAG capsulotomy treats this post-operative clouding.
Symptoms
Blurry Vision
Hazy or Cloudy Vision
Decreased visual details
Glare
Light sensitivity
Difficulty with Night Vision
PCO can significantly affect your visual clarity and quality, hindering the success of cataract surgery. It can occur any time after cataract surgery.
YAG Capsulotomy
YAG capsulotomy is a non-invasive laser procedure performed to treat PCO. The laser creates a small opening in the cloudy posterior capsule, allowing light to pass through and restoring clear vision. We offer this safe and effective procedure in-office. The procedure is painless and typically only takes only a few minutes. Results are quick and long-lasting.
