Cataract Surgery Eye Drops
Cataracts are a shockingly common eye condition. In fact, the American Academy of Ophthalmology says that more than half of Americans will develop cataracts by the time they turn 80.
What Are Cataracts?
Inside our eyes, we have a natural, clear lens. This lens bends light rays that come into our eyes to help us see. However, cataracts affect this lens in our eyes causing it to become clouded, leading to blurry, distorted, or less colorful vision.
How Are Cataracts Treated?
Cataracts are treated by a surgical process that removes the clouded lens from the eye, replacing it with a clear artificial lens called an intraocular lens, which is positioned in the same spot as the natural lens.
How Cataract Surgery Eye Drops Can Help
When it comes to the cataract removal process, there are many steps to follow and options to consider. However, thanks to advancements in technology, eye drops are no longer one of them! With cataract surgery eye drops, patients need fewer drops, saving both time and money. This is thanks to a new innovative approach (Central Drug combines multiple eye drop ingredients into one bottle for ease of use and decreased cost of treatment) of delivering antibiotics and anti-inflammatory medicine directly into the eye both before and after surgery.  As your medication is slowly absorbed over the weeks after surgery, you will begin to recover and enjoy better, clear vision without you having to worry about numerous drops.

- It is safe and effective.
- It reduces the risk of swelling, infection and other complications.
