What is the best lens implant for cataract surgery?
No two patients are the same, so there isn’t one best “one-size-fits-all” lens implant. Dr. Zelenak believes lens selection is the single biggest factor in a patient’s satisfaction with their results. During your cataract evaluation, your ophthalmologist should take his or her time discussing your desired goals for the surgery, your lifestyle, and what other factors are present, such as prior LASIK or RK. Educating yourself with your own research and talking to friends or family can be helpful for generating questions and your goals for the surgery, but lens selection should be based on a thorough conversation between you and your surgeon. Your surgeon can then take your wishes combined with their experience and knowledge when making lens recommendations for your specific situation.
Who is the best cataract surgeon near me?
There are many cataract surgeons in the Metro Detroit area so be sure you are comfortable with your surgeon. After all, they are the one who will be working inside your eyes. Your surgeon should take the time to discuss your specific situation, lifestyle, goals, and other eye problems you may have. Taking the extra time to do a thorough consultation with you beforehand, address all your concerns, and make sure you feel comfortable is usually a good sign that surgeon will apply that same care and attention during surgery to assure an excellent outcome. Even so, as with any medical procedure, there are inherent risks involved. A good surgeon will help you understand the risks and do everything possible to minimize them. Beware, however, of a surgeon who makes promises that sound too good to be true or is not willing to spend the time needed to fully understand your desires. Even if you’ve been referred to a specific surgeon or practice but your intuition says this isn’t the right fit, look elsewhere. You only have one set of eyes.
