The factors that make someone a medically good or poor candidate for laser cataract surgery include the presence of and location of corneal scars, history of certain kinds of eye surgeries or trauma in the past, and the anatomy of the conjunctiva, or the white part of the eye, and its underlying structures. No one has the same fingerprint or eyes!</p>"}},{"@type":"Question","name": "When Should I Get Cataract Surgery?","acceptedAnswer":{"@type": "Answer","text": "<p>You know, with cataract surgery it’s a little different from having LASIK or having PRK. With LASIK and PRK, if I decide I want to wait, then, I can wear glasses and contacts and likely still see 20/20. With a cataract, by definition, something’s clouding my vision that glasses won’t fix. So how long do you want to wait? Now, even so, cataract surgery is elective surgery. We always tell patients it’s nothing to be apprehensive about because it is such good surgery. And the safety record is so good.</p><p>The risks are there, and real, but low. And with laser cataract surgery, our safety results are even better. So it’s nothing to be apprehensive about. Luckily it’s also something you don’t have to rush into. You just won’t see as well as you could, with anything, until you have the cataract fixed. The cataract won’t damage your eye by being in there. It’s not going to, you know, damage structures. And, you know, you can, you know, take your time.</p><p>Typically you could have it done next week, next month, or even next year. But the vision will get worse, typically, as time goes on. And it won’t get better. So when you get to the point where you can’t do the things you want to do, whether it’s driving at night, reading, see the golf ball at a zillion yards, or whatever you were used to doing and you can’t do now. Then that’s the time to start thinking about having cataract surgery.</p><p>To be evaluated, see what your options are and then make up your decision. It’s elective surgery. The decision is yours. We can provide the information, there’s no rush. You just won’t see well, typically, until you have it fixed.</p>"}},{"@type":"Question","name": "What Should I Expect on the Day of Surgery?","acceptedA
300nswer":{"@type": "Answer","text": "<p>On the day of surgery, you will arrive at the surgery center and check-in. You will meet your nursing and anesthesiology teams, who will help keep you comfortable during your procedure. You’ll have the chance to read over the informed consent documents.</p><p>Prior to surgery, you’ll meet with Dr. Slade to re-visit your surgical plan and have any of your questions answered. The laser portion of the procedure comes first, after which Dr. Slade will remove the cataract fragments, polish and prepare the natural lens capsule for receiving your new intraocular lens (IOL), place the new IOL into the appropriate position and orientation, and ensure that the eye is well sealed (more than 99% of the time without any stitches).</p>"}},{"@type":"Question","name": "What is the Difference Between Standard Cataract Surgery and the Laser Cataract Surgery That You Do?","acceptedAnswer":{"@type": "Answer","text": "<p>Stephen Slade MD: Standard cataract surgery is what we’ve done for years and years. It’s taking the cataract out, and it’s a wonderful technique. It’s taking the cataract out through a tiny incision, with an ultrasonic needle.</p><p>That being said, the amazing advance that we have pioneered, is laser cataract surgery. A lot of people have always thought that we do cataract surgery with a laser. I have to tell people that every day, “No, it’s not done with a laser.” We do use this little ultrasonic needle, but that’s been going on for about 30 years.</p><p>Laser cataract surgery is actually using a laser, where there is no cutting on the eye, with metal blades. It’s using the laser to do about half of the steps of cataract surgery. It’s a far more precise way to make the opening into the lens, without having to use a manual technique to make that opening. It’s a no-touch technique to actually break apart and soften the lens so that it can be removed more easily.</p><p>It shortens the time that we spend inside the eye, and it gives us a more precise way of doing all of these different things to the eye. So, in our experience with it, it adds a lot of different safety factors, and it adds precision.</p>"}},{"@type":"Question","name": "What is the difference between traditional cataract surgery and laser cataract surgery?","acceptedA
300nswer":{"@type": "Answer","text": "<p>Traditional cataract surgery is all done by hand with microsurgical instruments. Laser cataract surgery involves doing some of these steps with the geometric precision of the laser, which is more precise and reproducible. These steps include opening the natural lens capsule, dividing the cataract into pieces for low-energy removal, and corneal incisions commonly used to reduce post-operative astigmatism and improve the accuracy of the unaided post-operative vision.</p>"}},{"@type":"Question","name": "Will standard (ultrasonic) cataract surgery become obsolete in the near future?","acceptedAnswer":{"@type": "Answer","text": "<p>The laser can’t directly remove things from the eye. What it can do is make incisions in the eye. It can make all of the openings into the lens, and it can break up the lens. It can get it softened. It can get it ready to be taken out, but will still use, in most people, the ultrasound to remove the lens fragments. So I don’t think it’s going to make ultrasound go away.</p><p>In fact, I think the real clever physicians will be the ones that best blend the laser cataract surgery with the techniques of ultrasound so that we use, again, the laser sort of to do the first half of the surgery. And then the ultrasound, optimized to the laser, to do the second half of the surgery in a quicker, faster way. For example, we have found with the laser, we’re able to use less ultrasound. We have found with the laser first, that we do less manipulation of the eye.</p><p>We spend less time in the eye. We use less ultrasound. And the eye actually winds up in a healthier state. Because the less we do, typically with eyes, the better. So they actually work beautifully together. The laser does the first half. We use the ultrasound and the surgeon to do the second half. And in our experience, we’re ending up with a faster, more precise, more predictable, safer surgery that leaves the eye more intact.</p><p>That leaves the eye alone more and is gentler. A kinder, gentler approach to eye surgery. Which can translate to better results. We’re seeing people that have a more precise result. They’re seeing better, faster, quicker, more accurately. We’re very pleased that our visual results are even better with the laser.</p>"}},{"@type":"Question","name": "Will I need to wear glasses or contacts after the surgery?","acceptedA
300nswer":{"@type": "Answer","text": "<p>Many people have a better vision (without the help of glasses/contacts) after modern cataract surgery with Dr. Slade than they have ever had before!</p><p>However, it is important to realize that no one can guarantee to be glasses-free after surgery.

476
477
478
479<p class="wp-block-paragraph"><a href="https://www.visiontexas.com/eye-doctors-houston/stephen-slade-md-ophthalmologist-houston/">Dr. Slade</a> is a pioneer in the field of refractive cataract surgery. Our patients not only have the choice to see at all distances after surgery, but they were also the first patients in the United States that could have laser cataract surgery.</p>

486
487
488
489<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Surgery to remove cataracts is one of the most frequently performed procedures today. It is also one of the most successful and&nbsp;safest procedures in medicine today. It is estimated that there are over 14 million lens implant procedures performed each year.</p>
490
491
492
493<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Cataract surgery is elective surgery and that is good news for the patient. There is no need to wait until your vision is very poor. We advise our patients to consider&nbsp;<a href="https://www.visiontexas.com/cataracts-houston/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">cataract surgery</a>&nbsp;when the cataract begins to affect their lifestyles; close vision, driving, sports, reading, or otherwise. The cataract will typically not damage your eye while it is growing, so there is also no need to rush into the surgery. You can decide when the time is right for you!</p>
494
495
496
497<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Dr. Stephen Slade performs the procedure within our office based operating suite or at our local surgery center, just a few blocks away from our offices. You will arrive about an hour before your actual surgery. You will be given a mild sedative to help you relax. The area around your eye will be cleansed and a sterile drape will be applied around your eye. The surgery only takes a few minutes but plan to spend 2 to 3 hours at the center for the pre-operation procedures and recovery.</p>
498
499
500
501<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Dr. Slade will use a powerful anesthetic eye drop to completely numb the eye. Using only a topical anesthetic avoids the risks and pain associate with needle injections and provides a much quicker return of vision. There is no need for shots or injections.</p>
502
503
504
505<p class="wp-block-paragraph">A small instrument will be placed between your eyelids to keep you from blinking. In Laser Cataract Surgery, the laser is used to make the opening in the eye, an opening in the lens itself, and to treat the lens. If needed, an ultrasonic instrument will then gently break the cataract into microscopic particles, which are then suctioned away.</p>

976
977
978
979<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Most patients are concerned about the cataract surgery recovery process. Our doctors provide the best quality care and thoroughly explain what you can expect after cataract surgery. Recovery from cataract surgery is generally very quick. Most patients obtain better vision within the first 24 hours of the procedure. Itching and mild discomfort are normal after cataract surgery. Some fluid discharge is also common. Your eye may be sensitive to light and touch.</p>
980
981
982
983<p class="wp-block-paragraph">If you have discomfort, your doctor can suggest treatment. After one or two days, any moderate discomfort should disappear. Complete visual recovery varies from patient to patient but most patients return to their everyday activities within a day or two. If you have cataracts in both eyes, the second procedure will most likely be scheduled within a week or two. Your doctor will schedule exams to check on your progress. Each person heals differently so it is important to discuss the cataract surgery recovery with your eye doctor.</p>
984
985
986
987<p class="wp-block-paragraph">For a few days after surgery, your doctor may ask you to use eye drops to help to heal and decrease the risk of infection. Ask your cataract eye doctor about how to use your eye drops, how often to use them, and what effects they can have. You will need to wear an eye shield or eyeglasses to help protect your eye. Avoid rubbing or pressing on your eye.</p>
988

990
991<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Serious complications are extremely rare but because it is a form of surgery, there are some potential risks involved. Our staff and cataract surgeons will provide you with additional information about the risks associated with cataract surgery and answer any of the questions you may have.

1001<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Not everyone is a candidate for laser cataract surgery, and we highly recommend a consultation for a personalized surgical plan. “One size fits all” vision approaches are a thing of the past. The factors that make someone a medically good or poor candidate for laser cataract surgery include the presence of and location of corneal scars, history of certain kinds of eye surgeries or trauma in the past, and the anatomy of the conjunctiva, or the white part of the eye, and its underlying structures.

1007<p class="wp-block-paragraph">You know, with cataract surgery it’s a little different from having LASIK or having PRK. With LASIK and PRK, if I decide I want to wait, then, I can wear glasses and contacts and likely still see 20/20. With a cataract, by definition, something’s clouding my vision that glasses won’t fix. So how long do you want to wait? Now, even so, cataract surgery is elective surgery. We always tell patients it’s nothing to be apprehensive about because it is such good surgery. And the safety record is so good.</p>
1008
1009
1010
1011<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The risks are there, and real, but low. And with laser cataract surgery, our safety results are even better. So it’s nothing to be apprehensive about. Luckily it’s also something you don’t have to rush into. You just won’t see as well as you could, with anything, until you have the cataract fixed. The cataract won’t damage your eye by being in there. It’s not going to, you know, damage structures. And, you know, you can, you know, take your time.</p>
1012
1013
1014
1015<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Typically you could have it done next week, next month, or even next year. But the vision will get worse, typically, as time goes on. And it won’t get better. So when you get to the point where you can’t do the things you want to do, whether it’s driving at night, reading, see the golf ball at a zillion yards, or whatever you were used to doing and you can’t do now. Then that’s the time to start thinking about having cataract surgery.</p>

1035<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Stephen Slade MD: Standard cataract surgery is what we’ve done for years and years. It’s taking the cataract out, and it’s a wonderful technique. It’s taking the cataract out through a tiny incision, with an ultrasonic needle.</p>
1036
1037
1038
1039<p class="wp-block-paragraph">That being said, the amazing advance that we have pioneered, is laser cataract surgery. A lot of people have always thought that we do cataract surgery with a laser. I have to tell people that every day, “No, it’s not done with a laser.” We do use this little ultrasonic needle, but that’s been going on for about 30 years.</p>
1040
1041
1042
1043<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Laser cataract surgery is actually using a laser, where there is no cutting on the eye, with metal blades. It’s using the laser to do about half of the steps of cataract surgery. It’s a far more precise way to make the opening into the lens, without having to use a manual technique to make that opening. It’s a no-touch technique to actually break apart and soften the lens so that it can be removed more easily.</p>
1044
1045
1046
1047<p class="wp-block-paragraph">It shortens the time that we spend inside the eye, and it gives us a more precise way of doing all of these different things to the eye. So, in our experience with it, it adds a lot of different safety factors, and it adds precision.</p>

1053<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Traditional cataract surgery is all done by hand with microsurgical instruments. Laser cataract surgery involves doing some of these steps with the geometric precision of the laser, which is more precise and reproducible. These steps include opening the natural lens capsule, dividing the cataract into pieces for low-energy removal, and corneal incisions commonly used to reduce post-operative astigmatism and improve the accuracy of the unaided post-operative vision.</p>

1059<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The laser can’t directly remove things from the eye. What it can do is make incisions in the eye. It can make all of the openings into the lens, and it can break up the lens. It can get it softened. It can get it ready to be taken out, but will still use, in most people, the ultrasound to remove the lens fragments. So I don’t think it’s going to make ultrasound go away.</p>
1060
1061
1062
1063<p class="wp-block-paragraph">In fact, I think the real clever physicians will be the ones that best blend the laser cataract surgery with the techniques of ultrasound so that we use, again, the laser sort of to do the first half of the surgery. And then the ultrasound, optimized to the laser, to do the second half of the surgery in a quicker, faster way. For example, we have found with the laser, we’re able to use less ultrasound. We have found with the laser first, that we do less manipulation of the eye.</p>
1064
1065
1066
1067<p class="wp-block-paragraph">We spend less time in the eye. We use less ultrasound. And the eye actually winds up in a healthier state. Because the less we do, typically with eyes, the better. So they actually work beautifully together. The laser does the first half. We use the ultrasound and the surgeon to do the second half. And in our experience, we’re ending up with a faster, more precise, more predictable, safer surgery that leaves the eye more intact.</p>
1068
1069
1070
1071<p class="wp-block-paragraph">That leaves the eye alone more and is gentler. A kinder, gentler approach to eye surgery. Which can translate to better results. We’re seeing people that have a more precise result. They’re seeing better, faster, quicker, more accurately. We’re very pleased that our visual results are even better with the laser.</p>

1120
1121
1122
1123<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Cataract surgery provides substantial improvements for those with cataracts by replacing the clouded lens with a clear artificial one. This intervention leads to a restoration of sharper and more vivid vision, enhancing overall visual clarity. Specific benefits of this procedure include:</p>
1124
1125
1126
1127<ul class="wp-block-list">
1128<li><strong>Restoration of clearer vision</strong>: Replacing the cloudy lens results in sharper and more vibrant sight.</li>
1129
1130
1131
1132<li><strong>Reduction in glare</strong>: Many patients experience less trouble with bright lights, especially at night.</li>
1133
1134
1135
1136<li><strong>Correction of other vision problems</strong>: Certain types of cataract surgery can also correct nearsightedness, farsightedness, and astigmatism.</li>
1137
1138
1139
1140<li><strong>Potential reduction in dependence on glasses or contacts</strong>: Due to the correction of refractive errors, some individuals may need glasses or contacts less often.</li>
1141</ul>
1142

1153<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Monofocal lens implants work when light enters the actual lens and it is bent to a specific focal point. As the power of the monofocal lens becomes stronger, its ability to bend light more sharply is increased. Because the lens is monofocal, the light can only be bent to one focus point at a time. The light from these lenses is bent to focus specifically on the retina of the eye.</p>
1154
1155
1156
1157<p class="wp-block-paragraph">New lens implants are now available that can correct vision at near, intermediate and far distances. These types of lenses are commonly called “lifestyle lens implants” or premium lens implants and fall into the categories listed below. Multifocal, toric, and accommodating lens implants are all considered premium lens implants.</p>

1169<p class="wp-block-paragraph">If you are seeking a Houston cataract surgery expert and have astigmatism please feel free to consult the doctors at Slade &amp; Baker Vision Center. There are NEW options available for patients that have astigmatism and need an IOL for after cataract removal.</p>
1170
1171
1172
1173<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The AcrySof® Toric IOLs are artificial lenses that are ideal for individuals who have cataracts and also suffer from astigmatism. This lens is manufactured by Alcon Technologies a widely known and respected producer of intraocular implants. Please feel free to review images of the lens and watch a video related to the procedure and the patients who have tried this lens.</p>
1174
1175
1176
1177<p class="wp-block-paragraph">You may be familiar with the term TORIC if you have ever used astigmatic correcting contact lenses. Toric Lens Implants are a unique type of lens implant that is used to correct astigmatism.</p>
1178
1179
1180
1181<p class="wp-block-paragraph">A toric lens implant is NOT the only method of astigmatism correction so consult a doctor about the current possibilities. The asymmetric steepening of the cornea or natural lens causes light to be focused unevenly, which is the main optical problem in astigmatism. To individuals with uncorrected astigmatism, images may look blurry or shadowed.</p>
1182
1183
1184
1185<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Astigmatism can accompany any form of refractive error and is very common. Astigmatism can be corrected with glasses, contact lenses, corneal relaxing incisions, laser vision correction, and special implant lenses.</p>
1186
1187
1188
1189<p class="wp-block-paragraph">If a cataract patient has astigmatism and has aspirations to be glasses-free after surgery a Toric lens implant is a good option. Toric lens implants are NOT a correction option for presbyopia. The ACRYSOF® Toric lens implant is a popular choice for this type of lens.</p>
1190
1191
1192
1193<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Astigmatism is caused by an irregularly shaped cornea, or in the case of lenticular astigmatism, an irregularly shaped lens, that results in blurred vision. Since the Toric IOL is convex on both sides, it allows for the correction of both these types of astigmatism.</p>
1194
1195
1196
1197<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Before the Toric IOL, cataract patients with astigmatism would often undergo another procedure, called astigmatic keratotomy (AK), which involved creating incisions in the cornea to adjust the corneal shape.</p>
1198
1199
1200
1201<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The doctors at Slade &amp; Baker Vision Center understand how frustrating it can be to live with astigmatism and we hope we can offer a viable solution in a premium lens implant that is used during the cataract surgery procedure.</p>
