Cataracts
Almost everyone will develop cataracts as they grow older. A cataract is a clouding of the lens inside your eye. The images below show a normal eye and an eye that has developed cataracts.
Cataract surgery is one of the safest and most successful procedures done today. It has been performed successfully tens of millions of times. The procedure is an outpatient surgery, requiring only a few hours of your time. Most patients return to their daily activities the next day. Dr. Bowers' cataract procedures average about eight minutes. She uses the most advanced FDA approved phacoemulsification ultrasound technology to remove the cataract. This means no needle, no stitch, and no patch.
