This operation treats cataracts by removing and replacing the lens of your eye.
Drooping eyelids (ptosis) is when the muscle that lifts the eyelid can be weak or lose strength over time.
Entropion and ectropion correction surgery involves repairing an eyelid that either turns in or turns out.
Fluid filled lumps that form in your upper or lower eyelids are quite common. These cysts normally disappear on their own. Occasionally the cyst becomes infected causing pain, redness and swelling.
If conservative methods to treat lacrimal disorder are not successful, a consultant may recommend surgery.
A small proportion of patients will develop clouding of the capsule which covers the lens following cataract surgery. This is called posterior capsule opacification or PCO and feels similar to the original cataract. If this develops we offer a laser surgery called YAG capsulotomy to correct the problem.
