Cataract surgery is one of the most commonly performed and successful eye surgeries in the world.

At Dr. Agarwal’s Eye Hospital, we specialize in providing world-class cataract surgery, combining decades of expertise with state-of-the-art technology to ensure optimal results for our patients.
What is a Cataract?
A cataract is the clouding of the natural lens of the eye, which lies behind the iris and the pupil. It typically develops as a part of the aging process but can also be caused by eye injuries, certain medications, or medical conditions such as diabetes. Cataracts often develop slowly and can affect one or both eyes. Common symptoms include blurry vision, difficulty seeing at night, faded colors, sensitivity to light, and frequent changes in prescription glasses.
When is Cataract Surgery Needed?
Cataract surgery is recommended when the clouded lens interferes significantly with daily activities like reading, driving, or watching television. It is the only effective treatment for cataracts, and delaying surgery may worsen vision loss over time. Early detection through regular eye checkups is key to timely intervention.
Cataract Surgery at Dr. Agarwal’s Eye Hospital
At Dr. Agarwal’s, cataract surgery is performed by highly experienced ophthalmologists using the latest surgical techniques and equipment. The procedure involves removing the cloudy lens and replacing it with a clear, artificial intraocular lens (IOL). Our surgeons carefully select the appropriate IOL based on each patient’s lifestyle, vision goals, and eye health.
We offer advanced options including:
- Laser-assisted cataract surgery for enhanced precision
- Multifocal and toric IOLs for correcting presbyopia and astigmatism
- Micro-incision surgery for faster recovery and minimal discomfort
The Procedure: Safe, Quick, and Painless
Cataract surgery is typically an outpatient procedure lasting 15 to 30 minutes per eye. It is performed under local anesthesia, and patients are awake but comfortable during the process. Most people experience significant improvement in vision within a few days.
Post-surgery care includes using prescribed eye drops and avoiding strenuous activities for a few weeks. Our team ensures detailed follow-up and support throughout the recovery journey.
