Phaco Surgery (No-Injection Cataract Surgery)

Phaco surgery, also known as no-injection cataract surgery, is a modern and advanced technique used to remove cataracts and restore clear vision. The procedure is minimally invasive, painless, and allows faster recovery with excellent visual outcomes.

What Is Phaco Cataract Surgery?

Phacoemulsification (Phaco surgery) is a cataract removal technique in which ultrasonic energy is used to break the cloudy natural lens into tiny fragments, which are then gently removed. A clear artificial intraocular lens (IOL) is implanted to restore vision.

The surgery is commonly performed without injections, using topical (eye drop) anesthesia, making it comfortable and stress-free for patients.

Who Needs Phaco Cataract Surgery?

Patients with blurred or cloudy vision due to cataract
Difficulty seeing at night or in bright light
Glare or halos around lights
Trouble reading or performing daily activities
Reduced vision affecting work or quality of life

How Phaco Surgery Is Performed

Step 1: Pre-Surgery Evaluation)
A detailed eye examination and lens power calculation are done to plan surgery accurately.

Step 2: No-Injection Anesthesia
Anesthetic eye drops are used to numb the eye, avoiding injections and reducing discomfort.

Step 3: Cataract Removal (Phacoemulsification)
Ultrasonic energy breaks the cataract into small pieces, which are safely removed through a tiny incision..

Step 4: Lens Implantation
A foldable artificial lens is implanted through the same small incision.

Step 5: Recovery & Follow-Up
The incision heals naturally without stitches in most cases, and patients are advised post-surgery care..
