MEDICO-SURGICAL PROCEDURES

We are focus on improving and restoring the vision of those less fortunate people with Cataracts and Corneal diseases, two of the major causes of blindness in the world.

WHY CATARACT SURGERIES?

Cataract is the leading cause of vision loss that mainly affects adults over the age of 50 and in rare cases occurs in children.

Cataract happens when the natural lens on the eye becomes cloudy, as a result, people experience blurriness, dimness, and they are not able to see as bright or colorful as they did before.

Cataracts have an impact in people’s quality of life that could interfere with daily activities.

Some of the conditions that affect the cornea are: trauma, infections (herpes keratitis), hereditary conditions such as Fuchs’ dystrophy, among others.
