Two Solutions, One Procedure, Clearer Vision
What is Combined Surgery? If you have both cataracts and glaucoma, you don't need two separate surgeries. We can remove your cataract and perform a glaucoma procedure (often MIGS) at the exact same time. This "two-in-one" approach addresses both vision clarity and eye pressure in a single sitting.
What to Expect
- Efficiency: You undergo anesthesia and recovery only once.
- The Process: First, the cloudy cataract is removed and replaced with a clear lens. Then, the surgeon places a stent or treats the drainage angle to lower pressure.
Benefits & Recovery
- Convenience: Saves time and reduces stress by combining treatments.
- Improved Vision: Fixes the blurriness from cataracts immediately.
- Pressure Control: Helps manage glaucoma long-term, often reducing the number of drops you need to take daily.
