Cataract

Restore clarity. Regain your independence.

Cataracts are a common part of aging — but blurry vision doesn’t have to be. At Eye Specialist Centre Kuching, we offer safe, advanced cataract removal and lens replacement surgery to help you see clearly again.

What is a Cataract?

A cataract is the clouding of the eye’s natural lens, usually due to aging. It causes blurry or hazy vision, sensitivity to light, and difficulty seeing at night. Left untreated, cataracts can gradually lead to significant vision loss.

Symptoms

  • Blurred or foggy vision

  • Glare or halos around lights

  • Faded colours

  • Frequent changes in glasses prescription

  • Difficulty reading or driving, especially at night

Our Treatment Approach

Cataracts are treated with a quick and highly effective day surgery that replaces the cloudy lens with a clear artificial lens (IOL). We offer:

Advanced Lens Options:

  • Monofocal IOLs (for distance vision)

  • Multifocal IOLs (for both near, intermediate and far vision)

  • EDOF (Extended Depth of Focus) IOLs (for both near, intermediate and far vision)

  • Toric IOLs (for astigmatism)

Safe & Precise Surgery:
Performed by our experienced surgeons using modern techniques and state-of-the-art equipment.

Fast Recovery:
Most patients return to normal activities within a few days, with clearer vision almost immediately.

When Should You Consider Cataract Surgery?

If cataracts are affecting your daily activities — like driving, reading, or working — it may be time to consider treatment. A consultation with our eye specialists will help you decide the best time for surgery and the most suitable lens option for your lifestyle.
