Types of Cataract Surgery
Phacoemulsification, using ultrasound energy to break up and remove the clouded lens through a tiny incision before inserting a folded artificial intraocular lens, is the standard modern technique. Femtosecond laser-assisted cataract surgery is a newer variant that uses a laser for some of the incision and lens-fragmentation steps, while older extracapsular extraction is now reserved for rare, more advanced cases.
