View All DoctorsWhen you visit Desert Vista for cataract surgery, we first assess your eye health, discuss your symptoms, and recommend the best course of action for your needs. If cataract surgery is right for you, we will also discuss your IOL options and help you choose the best option for your vision and lifestyle.
Cataract surgery is the only way to effectively treat moderate to advanced cataracts. The procedure is minimally invasive and typically takes less than 30 minutes to complete. Our experienced cataract surgeons use small incisions and advanced techniques to gently remove the cloudy lens and replace it with a clear artificial lens, improving your vision instantly.
After your procedure, your Desert Vista surgeon will provide detailed postoperative instructions and schedule follow-up appointments to ensure a smooth recovery process. When you trust Desert Vista to restore your vision, we prioritize your comfort and safety through the procedure and beyond.
Desert Vista offers advanced IOLs to help patients further improve their vision. In addition to removing the symptoms of cataracts, these advanced lenses can also correct nearsightedness, farsightedness, astigmatism, and even age-related loss of near vision (presbyopia). ATIOLs can help reduce or even eliminate the need for eyeglasses and contacts. Additional costs are involved, and many patients choose to use an interest-free financing option or pay with cash or credit card. The best lens for you depends on many factors, including your lifestyle and specific vision needs, and our experts can help you determine which IOL is right for you. Contact us to discuss your options.
The Light Adjustable Lens is the only adjustable intraocular lens (IOL) available that allows optimization of your vision after lens implantation and healing. These lenses are unique because once your eye has healed, your eye doctor can help you preview and compare possible vision outcomes based on your unique preferences and lifestyle requirements. You can then select a prescription for your lens to help you achieve optimal vision correction. Your prescription is applied with a proprietary light treatment that precisely reshapes your implanted lens. You may need up to 3 total light treatments to reach your vision goals, but with Light Adjustable Lenses, you can clarify your vision and sharpen it in a single procedure.
If you don’t mind wearing glasses, Desert Vista offers basic monofocal (single-focus) IOLs. This traditional lens replaces the cloudy lens of the eye, reversing the effects of cataracts. This technology has been available for many years and improved millions of patients’ vision, and while basic monofocal lenses only correct your vision for a single distance, these IOLs are covered by most medical insurance plans.
Desert Vista Eye Specialists use the most advanced lenses and can help you determine the best options for your unique eyes. To find out which intraocular lens option is right for you, schedule a consultation with a Desert Vista Eye Specialists cataract surgeon today.
Cataracts are a common age-related condition where the natural lens of the eye becomes cloudy, causing vision to deteriorate. The National Eye Institute estimates that about 50% of Americans have cataracts by the age of 75. While cataracts are not painful, they can severely interfere with quality of life and can even cause blindness if left untreated.
