  2. What is a cataract surgery?

  3. A cataract surgery is performed to arrest further vision loss, and restore and improve the vision. Under this procedure, an eye doctor – ophthalmologist – replaces the damaged, cloudy lens of your eye with a new, but artificial, lens. The surgical procedure in India is very common, and is generally safe. The doctors often do it on an out-patient basis, which means the patient doesn’t have to stay back in the hospital after the cataract surgery.

  4. Cataract surgery cost in India Cataract surgery cost in India differs from one eye hospital to another eye hospital. However, the cost shouldn’t influence your decision of favouring one hospital or surgeon over another; since it is an eye surgery, you better go with an experienced eye surgeon, who has already performed a good number of eye surgeries.

  5. Risk factors • Inflammation • Infection • Bleeding • Loss of vision • Retinal detachment • Swelling • Glaucoma Complications after a cataract surgery are rare, and treatable. Complications that may arise after a surgery may include:

  6. Your chance of developing one or more complications is greater, if you have another eye disease. The patient may not benefit from the cataract surgery, if he/she has some other underlying eye diseases or conditions, which have yet not been treated.

  7. When can an eye specialist recommend a cataract surgery? A cataract surgery is performed to treat cataracts, when they cause blurry visions and increase the glare from lights. Your ophthalmologist may recommend a cataract surgery if the disease is impacting your quality of life, and hindering you from performing your daily life activities, such as reading newspaper and driving, especially at nights. A cataract surgery may also be recommended if the cataracts make it difficult for the doctor to examine or treat other eye diseases or conditions such as diabetic retinopathy.

  8. Can you get the surgery done at a reduced cost? Well, you can. However, for this you need to do some home-work and check the cataract surgery cost in India from as many eye hospitals as you can. Online research is another way to find out hospitals which have been performing eye surgeries for long, and are well equipped to offer low cost cataract surgeries. In general, the cataract surgery cost in India is pretty negligible if one compares the cost with what eye hospitals in many other countries charge. This is one prime reason foreigners flock to Indian eye hospitals and clinics every single year.
