This an extremely new state of the art service using highly sophisticated laser technology (LENSAR laser cataract system)

A specialised mechanism is used to stabilise the eye and a laser is delivered to perform the opening in the lens capsule and break up the cataract into small fragments using controlled energy delivery mechanisms. The precision enables minimial use of energy and the production of a perfectly circular capsular opening centred on  axis which enables excellent centering of the artificial lens implant

Sophisticated scanners make maps to determine where the laser needs to be applied

The surgery is completed through key hole incisions where the divided lens is easy to remove with only minimal/none application of the traditional ultrasonic energy.
