How long does cataract surgery take?

Frequently Asked Questions and Answers

Laser cataract surgery consists of two steps: a laser to make a round incision in the lens shell and a turbid crystalline lens to be split, and an ultrasonic surgical device to suck out the turbidity and insert a multifocal intraocular lens.
It takes about 10 to 15 minutes for one eye in total.
