CATARACT EXTRACTION WITH INTRAOCULER LENS IMPLANTATION
What is cataract extraction with intraocular lens implantation?

A cataract extraction with intraocular lens implantation is a procedure in which an eye surgeon removes a clouded lens (cataract) from the eye and replaces it with an artificial lens (lens implant).

YAG LASER CAPSULOTOMY
What is a YAG laser capsulotomy?
A YAG laser capsulotomy is a procedure in which an eye surgeon makes a small opening in the capsule of your eye. The capsule is the thin, clear membrane that holds the lens in place. During a YAG laser capsulotomy, your eye surgeon uses a special laser to make a cut in the capsule. This makes a clear opening for light rays to pass through.

When is it used?
Sometimes, especially after cataract surgery, the capsule becomes cloudy. Your vision becomes blurry. This procedure can improve your vision.
