A cataract is an opacity (or cloudiness) in the lens of the eye. This cloudiness develops inside the lens and restricts light passing through the eye and reaching the retina. When this occurs, vision is affected. An opacity can be quite minor, or it can become so marked that it prevents adequate vision.
Cataract removal is one of the most common eye operations performed in the UK today. It is also one of the safest and most effective, with a success rate of over 98%.

Treatment Options & Why Surgery is the Best Solution
Only cataracts causing symptoms need treatment. Modern cataract surgery is highly effective in restoring vision for most patients.
- Procedure: Cataract surgery is performed as a day case procedure, typically taking 10–15 minutes. However, you will need approximately 2–3 hours for preparation and recovery.
- How it Works: The surgery involves removing the cloudy lens through a small incision and replacing it with a new artificial lens, called the IntraOcular Lens (IOL) or implant, made from acrylic materials.
Choosing the Right Lens for You
Cataract surgery isn’t just about restoring vision—it’s about enhancing it. With advanced intraocular lenses (IOLs), you can choose a solution that fits your lifestyle, whether it’s crisp distance vision, seamless focus at all ranges, or astigmatism correction.

Step-by-Step Process
Before Surgery
Before undergoing RLE, you will have a detailed eye examination to determine the best intraocular lens (IOL) suited to your lifestyle and vision goals. You may be advised to stop wearing contact lenses for a few days, avoid certain medications, and use prescribed eye drops to prepare your eyes for the procedure.
During Surgery
- The procedure is performed under local anesthesia, ensuring comfort with no pain.
- A tiny incision is made at the edge of the cornea.
- The natural lens is gently removed using advanced ultrasound technology.
- A premium intraocular lens (IOL) is implanted in its place.
- The incision is self-sealing, so no stitches are required.
- The entire procedure takes 15-20 minutes per eye.
After Surgery
- Immediate improvement in vision is often noticeable within a day or two.
- You can resume most daily activities within 4 to 7 days, but avoid heavy lifting, swimming, and eye rubbing for a few weeks.
