Cataract Services

We all have someone in our family – parents, grandparents, uncles or aunts who have to undergo cataract surgery at some point or the other. When you or a loved one are given a diagnosis of cataract and advised to undergo Cataract Surgery, the very thought can give rise to a lot of questions, anxieties and fears.

One major cause of apprehension is – What will happen during Cataract Operation?

Modular Operation Theatres For Infection Free Cataract Surgery

The Cataract Operation theaters at NECH boast advanced features for safety and infection control. Equipped with HEPA filters, Jointless flooring, ceilings, and walls, and a Laminar flow system, the theaters ensure a sterile environment. HEPA filters block particles above 0.3 microns, and the Laminar flow maintains positive pressure, preventing air ingress. Seamless surfaces eliminate bacterial lodgment, minimizing post-cataract surgery infections at Sri Ganapathi Eye & Dental Care Hospital.

Cataract surgery involves removing the natural eye lens which has opacified and replacing it with an artificial lens called an intraocular lens (IOL). Cataract operation is usually performed by Phacoemulsification.

Newer stitchless cataract surgeries called MICS (minimal incision cataract surgery) help a faster and gentler recovery. Nonetheless, a cataract surgery requires some precautions after the surgery. Here is a list of Do’s and Don’ts that a patient is expected to follow after Cataract Surgery.

DON’TS:
  • Do not rub your eye with your hands. This can impair the healing processs after stitchless surgery. Also, it can cause eye infections. If your eye waters or itches, you can wipe it gently with a clean tissue or a sterile, moist cotton swab.
  • Do not have a shower bath for the first 7 days after surgery. You can take a bath below the chin only and use a wet towel to wipe your face.
  • Eye washing with normal water is not allowed for 7 days.
  • Do not indulge in activities that might cause damage to your eyes.
  • Do not play with children or engage in contact sports or activities like swimming for a month to avoid any chances of infections or injuries.
  • Do not lift heavy weights. If possible, avoid deep and straining cough, sneezing and straining hard for stools for a month. These activities might increase the pressure in your eyes.
DO’S:
  • You may begin shaving after the 3rd day after Cataract Operation.
  • You can resume activities like watching TV or shopping after 2-3 days of surgery. You may resume all your routine household activities after a week.
EYEDROPS
  • Do instill eye drops regularly, as advised by your eye doctor.
  • Do wash your hands with soap and water before you apply any eye medications.
  • Do wear a protective eye cap at night for a week.
  • Do clean your eyes with clean boiled water using cotton, 2-3 times a day.
  • Do contact your eye surgeon immediately if there is any problem.
