Long Island Cataract Surgery

April 02, 2010 @ 03:57 PM — by John Mauro

 

As we mature (get older), the lens of our eyes starts to change and eventually becomes cloudy. Cataracts will eventually happen to every person if they live long enough and with some people, cataracts can happen earlier or even appear at birth. The time to perform cataract surgery is when the cataract is causes enough blurred vision, glare, and visual difficulty that it negatively affects a patients quality of life.  Our board certified cataract surgeons, Dr. Sidney Martin, Dr. Larry Zweibel, Dr. Jeffrey Martin and Dr. John Mauro are experts in cataract surgery and perform cataract surgery in the most modern ways including cataract surgery using no stitches, eye patch or injection around the eyes. In Long Island, we see many patients from all over suffolk and nassau counties, including the five boroughs. If you would like to be evaluated for cataracts feel free to call us and set up an appointment.

 

Cataract Surgery, What lens is best for me? Part two of two

March 12, 2010 @ 06:53 PM — by John Mauro
Individuals who are candidates for premium IOL implants at our Smithtown office practice usually present with  a cataract that is causing significant visual changes and are in otherwise in good ocular health. These patients also express  a strong desire to be less dependent on glasses for a wide range of vision, including distance and near. There are many different premium IOL manufacturers, which use different technology. After a full ophthalmic examination, any of our board certified doctors will discuss your vision goals with you. One of our doctors will then make a recommendation in terms of IOL choice that would be best fit their need. The most popular IOLs are the Crystalens®, ReSTOR®, ReZoom™, and most recently the Technis®. The ReSTOR and the Technis are similar in that they are multifocal lenses. Meaning that at the center of the lens is a series of many stepwise concentric circles which are precisely calibrated to allow light to enter the eye, whi

  The natural lens of the eye over time, becomes clouded. This is called a cataract. During the cataract procedure, the eye surgeon makes a small incision in the cornea about the size of a pencil tip. Then using ultrasound technology, the cataract is removed in a matter of minutes and carefully inserted is the new lens, either a monofocal or premium IOL(intraocular lens). A similar procedure is used to remove the natural lens for the patient who does not have cataracts but desires decreased dependence on glasses, either as an alternative to LASIK or PRK, they do not qualify for LASIK or PRK because there prescription is to large or to eliminate reading glasses in general. In this case, the patient may elect have a premium IOL. This is also called “clear lens exchange.” Drs. Zweibel, Martin and Mauro all use the "no-stitch" method of cataract surgery and implanting an IOL. The "no-stitch" technique allows fast visual recovery. The intraocular
