Phacoemulsification with IOL (Flexible Lens)
Day
Surgery Procedure
PACKAGE CODE: Phaco Flex
Effective Date: April 9, 2006
Summary: This is a routine out-patient
Phacoemulsification with IOL (Flexible/Foldable Lens) Implantation
Package. Phacoemulsification is an advanced technique of cataract
extraction. It is also known as small-incision cataract surgery.
Others call it the "no-needle, no-stitch", or "sutureless" technique. After
application of a local anesthetic, your doctor makes a small
incision on the side of the cornea, the clear, dome-shaped
surface that covers the front of the eye. The doctor then inserts a
tiny probe into the eye. This device emits ultrasound waves that
soften and break up the cloudy center of the lens so it can be
removed by suction. A small flexible lens is then inserted into the
eye. Most cataract surgery today is done by phaco. |
