YAG capsulotomy

YAG capsulotomy – laser treatment to remove the so-called secondary cataract (secondary haze of the posterior capsule of the lens) which occurs in approximately 50% or more of patients after cataract surgery. Secondary cataract may appear months or years after cataract surgery, or may not occur at all. It is not a complication of the surgery but rather a natural process.

CAUTION

The procedures are performed on an outpatient basis, under local anesthesia. The patient cannot drive right after the procedure and it is also recommended to come accompanied.
