<h2>What is Cataract Surgery and Intraocular Lens Implantation?</h2>
Cataract surgery and intraocular lens implantation (Phacoemulsification with Intraocular Lens) is a surgical technique that uses ultrasound to break up the cloudy lens caused by cataracts, then removes the original lens and implants an artificial intraocular lens (Intraocular Lens: IOL) in its place. This technique allows for a small surgical incision and helps patients recover quickly
