With cataracts affecting more than 80% of Singaporeans aged 60 and above, our cataract clinic is here to shed light on this common condition and its treatments.

Most people associate cataract with ageing, but it can also affect children. If your child has been experiencing blurry or double vision, glare, or faded colours, these symptoms should not be ignored.

Some children are born with cataract, while others develop it later due to factors such as high myopia, previous eye trauma, or prolonged use of medications like steroids.

Early diagnosis and timely treatment are important in preventing long-term vision problems and supporting your child's visual development.

If your child is at increased risk of cataract or has been experiencing changes in their vision, consult with our experienced paediatric ophthalmologist and cataract surgeon 𝗗𝗿 𝗟𝗲𝗼 𝗦𝗲𝗼 𝗪𝗲𝗶 at 📞𝟲𝟳𝟯𝟳 𝟴𝟯𝟲𝟲.

Following cataract surgery, you can look forward to clear vision as your eye heals and adjusts to the new lens implant.

To ensure a seamless recovery, it is important to follow these post-operative care instructions along with advice provided by your cataract surgeon.

Note that you may experience some itch and discomfort for a couple of days after the procedure, but rest assured that most discomfort should subside after a few days, with complete healing within 4 to 6 weeks’ time.

Blurred vision, glare, colour changes and double vision are common symptoms of cataract, a condition where the eye’s natural lens becomes clouded.

As cataract progresses, everyday activities can become increasingly challenging. Reading newspapers, recognising faces, driving, or enjoying your favourite hobbies may require more effort as your vision gradually deteriorates.

Over time, these difficulties can affect your confidence in social settings and reduce your independence, taking a toll on your mental and emotional well-being.

Thankfully, cataract surgery can restore clear vision and help you return to the activities and moments that matter most. For more information on cataract treatment, schedule a consultation at 📞𝟲𝟳𝟯𝟳 𝟴𝟯𝟲𝟲.

A cataract develops when the natural lens of the eye becomes cloudy, causing impaired vision.

Timely treatment is important as untreated cataract can cause legal, or even complete, blindness.

Cataract surgery can be performed through conventional phacoemulsification and advanced laser-assisted surgery.

𝗣𝗵𝗮𝗰𝗼𝗲𝗺𝘂𝗹𝘀𝗶𝗳𝗶𝗰𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻
Performed by hand, an incision is made in the cornea using a handheld blade and an ultrasound probe is used to break down the cataract into small pieces.

𝗟𝗮𝘀𝗲𝗿-𝗮𝘀𝘀𝗶𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗱 𝗰𝗮𝘁𝗮𝗿𝗮𝗰𝘁 𝘀𝘂𝗿𝗴𝗲𝗿𝘆
A bladeless alternative that utilises femtosecond laser technology to create corneal incisions with perfect circular cuts and precise depth, allowing for higher predictability of outcomes and lower risk of errors.

Regardless of the surgical option, both procedures are safe and effective with the ultimate goal of restoring clear vision.

Cataract is one of the leading causes of blindness worldwide, yet many people hesitate to seek treatment due to common misconceptions.

As part of 𝗖𝗮𝘁𝗮𝗿𝗮𝗰𝘁 𝗔𝘄𝗮𝗿𝗲𝗻𝗲𝘀𝘀 𝗠𝗼𝗻𝘁𝗵, we are clearing up the myths surrounding cataract. Once a cataract forms, the only effective way to treat it is through surgical replacement of the cloudy, natural eye lens with an artificial lens.

If you have been experiencing symptoms like blurred and double vision, glare or colour changes, do not delay seeking treatment. Early diagnosis and treatment can help restore clear vision and improve quality of life.

A cataract occurs when the natural lens of the eye becomes cloudy, causing impaired vision. With modern cataract surgery—and the support of precise, personalised planning—clear vision can be effectively restored.

At 𝗗𝗿 𝗟𝗲𝗼 𝗔𝗱𝘂𝗹𝘁 & 𝗣𝗮𝗲𝗱𝗶𝗮𝘁𝗿𝗶𝗰 𝗘𝘆𝗲 𝗦𝗽𝗲𝗰𝗶𝗮𝗹𝗶𝘀𝘁, this planning process is enhanced with the Zeiss CIRRUS PathFinder, an AI-guided eye imaging tool that provides a detailed view of the retina before surgery.

By combining high-resolution imaging with AI analysis, CIRRUS PathFinder can detect and highlight areas of concern that might otherwise go unnoticed, improving the accuracy of preoperative assessment.

These insights are carefully interpreted by 𝗗𝗿 𝗟𝗲𝗼 𝗦𝗲𝗼 𝗪𝗲𝗶, our experienced cataract surgeon with over 25 years of experience. Combined with a comprehensive eye examination, this allows her to recommend the most suitable intraocular lens and tailor the surgery to suit each patient's needs.

With advanced technology supporting clinical expertise, cataract care becomes more precise from the very first step, assuring patients of quality visual outcomes.

When it comes to cataract formation, most cases are usually associated with ageing.

That said, even though age is the primary risk factor for cataract, other factors can also cause it to form earlier in life, which include diabetes, sun exposure and smoking.

Fortunately, the risk of developing cataract can be mitigated with regular eye screenings, along with the adoption of healthy lifestyle habits.

If you find yourself at risk of developing cataract, or are above the age of 40, contact us at 📞𝟲𝟳𝟯𝟳 𝟴𝟯𝟲𝟲 to have your eyes examined by a cataract surgeon.

To effectively treat cataract―the natural lens of the eye that has become cloudy, cataract surgery is performed to remove the cloudy natural eye lens and replace with an artificial intraocular lens (IOL).

Trifocal lens and extended depth of focus (EDOF) lens are two advanced IOL implant options that help to restore clear vision.

𝗧𝗿𝗶𝗳𝗼𝗰𝗮𝗹 𝗹𝗲𝗻𝘀
Provides clear and comfortable vision at all viewing distances, reducing the need for glasses across daily activities like reading and driving. Ideal for active individuals who engage in diverse visual tasks.

𝗘𝗗𝗢𝗙 𝗹𝗲𝗻𝘀
Offers clear vision at intermediate to far distances, with fewer side effects like night-time glares and halos. Often preferred for those who frequently engage in computer use and night driving.

𝗖𝗮𝘁𝗮𝗿𝗮𝗰𝘁 𝘀𝘂𝗿𝗴𝗲𝗼𝗻, 𝗗𝗿 𝗟𝗲𝗼 𝗦𝗲𝗼 𝗪𝗲𝗶 offers IOLs with an aspheric design that enables improved visual outcomes. Reach out for a consultation to find out which type of IOL implant best suits your needs. 📞𝟲𝟳𝟯𝟳 𝟴𝟯𝟲𝟲

A cataract occurs when the natural lens of the eye becomes cloudy and is commonly associated with ageing.

As the clouding worsens over time, less light will be able to enter the retina, causing vision to gradually become obstructed.

Seeing double vision, changes in colour perception and glares are also other common symptoms experienced with cataract.

As cataracts will not improve on their own and can eventually lead to blindness if left untreated, it’s prudent to remove the cataract as soon as possible to enjoy clear vision.

If you find yourself experiencing the symptoms above, seek prompt assessment from a cataract surgeon. 📞𝟲𝟳𝟯𝟳 𝟴𝟯𝟲𝟲
