Alcon Yag Laser capsulotomy


Aktis ophthalmological center (eye laser center) features Alcon Yag laser evolved system for secondary cataract treatment. Months or even years after cataract surgery (ultrasound phacoemulsification and intraocular lens insertion), perhaps vision becomes blur again. This happens because posterior capsule, the area where intraocular lens is implanted, sometimes produces blurred cells that usually cause blurred vision. This clouding lens capsule is quite common and it is not considered as a cataract surgery complication (also known as pseudo-cataract).
