Treatment & Procedures

Cataract Surgery

Commonly found in older people, a cataract is a clouding of the lens of the eye that can cause blurry vision, faded colour and night blindness. Cataract surgery is a procedure done to remove the clouding and restore vision to normalcy. It is a fairly common procedure and is done with little to no complication in a majority of cases.

Globally, over 2 billion have impaired vision or some kind of blindness, out of which at least 1 billion cases could have been prevented with medical intervention. The major causes of impaired vision across the globe are refractive errors and cataracts which have been left untreated. Most vision impairment cases are among people who are above 50 years of age.

Manipal Hospitals' ophthalmologists and cardiovascular surgeons believe in the value of accurate diagnosis in achieving effective treatment. The team is equipped with a wide range of diagnostic tools and tests with which to identify ocular disorders. The procedural treatments performed by our team of ophthalmological surgeons at an eye hospital in Gurgaon are designed to be minimally invasive and as safe as possible.
