By offering the most advanced cataract surgery available, the cataract specialists at Kremer Eye Center are able to eliminate injections and stitches, accelerate recovery times, and quickly restore your vision. We can often address other vision disorders while performing your cataract surgery, including astigmatism and near vision problems.

1. First, we will give the patient mild anesthesia and apply topical anesthetic eye drops to desensitize the eye, a technique pioneered at Kremer Eye Center. This eliminates bruising and soreness associated with injections. Patients taking medications such as aspirin and coumadin do not need to interrupt their dosage.
2. Our surgeon will then make a small opening in the eye, dissolve and remove the cataract using ultrasound (phacoemulsification), and implant a synthetic lens in its place. With this approach, most routine activities can be resumed in a short period of time.
3. For your health and well-being, the specialists at Kremer will only operate on one eye at a time. Surgery can generally be performed on the second eye two weeks after the first eye.
