Cataract Surgery
At Baylor Scott & White Surgical Hospital in Las Colinas, we offer cataract surgery designed to help improve vision affected by clouding of the eye’s natural lens. Our ophthalmologists use advanced techniques to remove the cataract and replace it with a clear artificial lens, often performed as a same-day outpatient procedure. Patients typically experience minimal discomfort and a short recovery time. While outcomes can vary, many individuals notice a significant improvement in their vision within days. Our team remains committed to patient comfort, safety, and clear communication throughout every step of the surgical process.
What Is a Cataract?
A cataract is the clouding of the eye’s natural lens, which can cause blurry vision, glare, and difficulty with night vision.
Symptoms That May Lead to Surgery:
- Blurry or cloudy vision
- Difficulty with night driving
- Increased sensitivity to light and glare
- Faded colors
- Frequent changes in eyeglass prescriptions
Enhancing Cataract Surgery with the ORA™ System
Our hospital is proud to offer advanced cataract surgery using the ORA™ System (Optiwave Refractive Analysis) — a leading-edge technology that helps deliver sharper vision and more precise results.
The ORA™ System allows our surgeons to take real-time measurements of your eye during surgery, after the cloudy cataract lens has been removed.
This helps:
- Choose the best lens implant for your eye
- Fine-tune the power and placement of the lens
- Improve outcomes, especially for patients with astigmatism or who have had LASIK
Think of it as having a “smart” guidance system during surgery, giving your surgeon valuable feedback to customize the procedure for your unique eye.
If you’re considering cataract surgery and want the best possible vision results, ask us about ORA™ technology and how it can help you see more clearly after surgery.
