The Process – Consultation to Surgery 

When you choose this clinic for your cataract surgery, you will be contacted by an optometrist for an initial consultation.

During this call, you can ask any questions you may have, including those about lens options. Following this, during your in-person visit, the specialists will assess your eye health, discuss your symptoms, and help you select the best lens option based on your lifestyle and visual needs.

You will be guided through every step of the process, ensuring you understand all available options and feel confident in your decision.

The day after your surgery, you will attend a follow-up appointment before you travel home, allowing the specialists to check your recovery and address any concerns.

Cataract Surgery in Sweden

Cataracts develop when the eye’s natural lens becomes cloudy, resulting in blurred vision and impacting your quality of life.

Typical symptoms include blurred vision, difficulty seeing in dim light, and increased sensitivity to glare, such as when driving at night.

If you notice any of these signs, it is important to seek treatment promptly, as cataract surgery remains the most effective way to regain clear vision.

Lens Options for Cataract Surgery

During cataract surgery, the cloudy natural lens is removed and replaced with an artificial intraocular lens (IOL).

Choosing the right lens is an important part of the process, and we offer several options depending on your needs and lifestyle:

• Monofocal lens: provides good vision at one distance, either near, intermediate, or far. For example, if you choose a lens for distance vision, you may still need glasses for reading. This is the most cost-effective option and provides stable vision at the selected distance.
• Monofocal toric lens: ideal if you have astigmatism (an irregular shape of the cornea). It corrects both cataracts and astigmatism simultaneously, offering better results than a standard monofocal lens, especially for distance vision.
• Multifocal lens: designed to provide clear vision at multiple distances – near, intermediate, and far. This means you can see well both up close and at a distance. Multifocal lenses are a great option for patients who want greater independence from corrective eyewear after surgery.
