    Now age is not a matter of consideration for cataract surgery, people in their 100s do the same, mainly depending on whether they meet the conditions for surgery.

    Visual acuity cannot be estimated after surgery because the intraocular lens used is not the same, and the ultrasound measured before surgery may also be incorrect.

    The vision is generally good after healing, and the patients I have met can last almost for life, but some intraocular lenses are honestly not of good quality, so it is best to choose a better quality when choosing.

    It is not necessary to do it eye by eye, but for the elderly, it may be done eye by eye considering emotional problems, but if it is done eye by eye, the elderly do not know how the body recovers from the two surgeries, and the cost of two surgeries is more than 1,000 more than one.

    Look at the type of surgery to determine the cost, the current ultramammary surgery fee may be 5000, of course, this includes some ** costs, the situation of the elderly is more complicated, the cost can only be determined by the physical condition of the elderly.

    Cataract is the eye disease with the highest blindness rate in China, and surgery is currently the only effective measure for cataract. In recent years, with the continuous progress of cataract surgical equipment and surgical technology, phacoemulsification surgery has been developed and perfected, and it has become a very mature and safe operation, and has now become the mainstream cataract surgery in the world.

    The main process of cataract surgery consists of two parts:

    1) The cloudy lens is aspirated by phacoemulsification.

    The human lens is enclosed by a very thin and transparent capsule, which is retained on the outside and sucks off the cloudy lens cortex inside. Generally, the doctor will make two small incisions at the edge of the cornea, and the instrument will reach into the eye through the small incision, tearing a small incision in the transparent capsule so that the instrument can contact the cloudy crystalline cortex inside. The cloudy cortex is sucked away by phacoemulsification, which greatly shortens the operation time.

    2) According to the needs of the patient, implant the corresponding intraocular lens (including hard intraocular lens, small incision foldable spherical intraocular lens or aspherical intraocular lens, and some patients with high requirements can also implant special intraocular lenses).

    The surgery retains a very thin outer layer of hyaline capsule, which resembles a bag, and the periphery of the bag is stretched by the suspensory ligament to hold the lens in place. The intraocular lens is placed in this natural pouch and is easy to operate and securely placed. However, if there is a problem with the capsular itself, the surgery will become complicated and the operation time will be prolonged.
