What is the LENSAR® Laser System?
The LENSAR® Laser System at Price Vision Group is a device that offers advanced laser cataract surgery. Cataract surgery (or Refractive Lens Exchange) is made even more precise by LENSAR’s Cataract Laser with Augmented Reality™ technology, a unique imaging system that provides a sophisticated, 3-D view of your eye to help plan and treat your cataract.
With this advanced technology, Price Vision Group can offer you a better, more precise cataract removal procedure that is customized to your eye’s own unique size and shape. If you have astigmatism, the LENSAR Laser can assist in the correction.
Comparison
Laser vs Manual Cataract Surgery
Laser-assisted cataract surgery uses the precision and accuracy of a laser to provide you with the most advanced cataract procedure available.
Laser Cataract Surgery
In laser cataract surgery, the LENSAR® Laser System uses a laser to precisely create an opening in the capsule during capsulorhexis.
In laser cataract surgery, laser fragmentation softens the lens and can reduce certain risks and healing time by reducing the energy needed to remove your cataract.
Manual Cataract Surgery
For capsulorhexis in manual cataract surgery, the surgeon carefully removes the anterior capsule using a circular motion.
In manual cataract surgery, ultrasonic energy (phacoemulsification) is used to break up the cloudy lens into tiny fragments.
