  1. Is Cataract Eye Laser Surgery OKC Painful? If you have blurred vision, notice halos around lights, or have difficulty reading in low light, it could be a sign that you need cataract eye laser surgery OKC. This is very important to consider, as untreated cataracts can lead to almost complete vision loss. In this procedure, your eye surgeon will remove the hardened and yellowed natural lens to replace it with a new, clear intraocular lens (IOL). Naturally, before having any eye surgery Oklahoma, you will want to learn more about the procedure before scheduling it. In particular, you may want to know if the laser surgery will be painful. Is Cataract Eye Surgery Oklahoma Painful? This procedure should not be painful. Before this treatment, your surgeon will provide you with a relaxant and/or numbing eye drops, helping you stay calm and free from pain during the surgery. When this wears off after the procedure, you may experience some discomfort; however, this will not last long. Because laser treatments are not used for every cataract surgery, the use of this technology may lead to some hesitation regarding the procedure. Eye doctors and surgeons have perfected laser technology for various procedures, including glaucoma treatments and LASIK eye surgery Oklahoma. Likewise, they offer laser surgical procedures for cataracts because it is deemed safe and effective. Reasons to Choose Cataract Eye Laser Surgery OKC For traditional cataract treatments, surgeons used handheld blades to make incisions on the cornea. This allowed access to the cataract so it could be replaced with an IOL. At BVA, we use the Catalys Precision Laser System for the same reason; however, it can be more effectively tailored to each patient’s unique eye. As a result, the incisions are made at a higher level of precision and accuracy. The laser creates circular openings of the exact size, shape, and location needed. In addition to being used for incisions, the Catalys laser can break up and soften your hardened natural lens. This will allow your surgeon to remove the cataract much more gently and reduces the need for ultrasound energy.
