How Does It Work and What Are the Steps?
No two eyes are the same, even your own right and left eyes. CATALYS advanced 3D imaging technology creates a multi-dimensional map of your eye, and the laser uses this information to create specialized incisions with superior precision.
The laser first creates a circular opening on the front of the cataract. Clinical studies have shown that this opening is approximately 10 times more accurate when performed with CATALYS than what is achievable by hand. CATALYS then softens and breaks up the hard cataract into tiny pieces, allowing for gentler, easier cataract removal.
Depending on your pre-operative vision and desired visual result, your doctor may recommend a tailored treatment plan that could include creating ultra-precise laser incisions in the cornea and a specific clear lens type, such as a multi-focal lens. This tailored treatment may reduce your need for glasses or contacts after surgery.
