Redefine Cataract Treatment to Customized Vision with State-of-the-art
Cataract and IOL Treatment Technology at MedPark Hospital

Vision degeneration is normal with aging. The deteriorating natural lenses in the eye can lead to cataract with a gradual increase in cloudiness. In many cases, the degree of myopia and hyperopia markedly change, affecting the power of the glasses. Sometimes, the natural lens may thicken to cause angle closure glaucoma, another complication of cataract.

The treatment of cataract with an intraocular lens (IOL) implant can improve the quality of vision and solve eyeglasses issues. There are several options of IOLs that will allow an individual to restore excellent and satisfying eyesight. In some cases, patients can even enjoy spectacle freedom and no longer need eyeglasses.

Thanks to present-day technological refinement and advancement, accuracy in planning and selecting appropriate IOL can be achieved. There are 3 main types of IOL. In each type of  IOL, there is a wide range of designs that can be chosen to fit the different needs of different individuals. At MedPark Hospital, our ophthalmologists are highly experienced in Cataract & IOL design. We can offer various options of IOL for each patient's personalized vision requirements. In the appropriate patients, we may use Mixed-IOL format with the different types of IOL in each eye of the same person. The best cataract treatment outcome mandates not only the ophthalmologist's expertise but also the availability of enabling state-of-the-art technology.

MedPark Hospital deploys advanced diagnostic technology for analysis of corneal topography and the analysis of the front part of the eye by anterior segment OCT (Optical Coherent Tomography), examination of the retina by posterior segment OCT, and utilizing an advanced operating microscope equipped with Cataract Suites and Intraoperative OCT for IOL measurement with Digital Marking System and intraoperative Aberrometry using 'wavefront technology' which can determine IOL refractive power and degree of astigmatism during surgery. As a result, the IOL implantation is as precise as possible, and errors are minimized, particularly in the case of post-LASIK refractive surgery patients. These are our state-of-the-art technologies that surpass typical cataract surgery practice elsewhere.
