With the development of intraocular lens technologies, multifocal or trifocal lenses can be worn, eliminating the need for glasses that we have to use after surgery. Thanks to these lenses, we will be able to see both far and near without glasses. Opr. from Medicana Bursa Hospital. Doctor Adnan İpçioğlu gave information on the subject.
Experts state that exposure to ultraviolet rays and radiation accelerates cataract formation, and point out that cataract disease, which is usually seen after the age of 60, now appears at earlier ages.
Experts state that there is no treatment for cataract disease other than surgery, and thanks to advancing technology and revolutionary innovations, cataract surgery is performed as a day treatment. While it is stated that the most important cause of cataract disease in adults is changes in the lens due to aging, in children it is metabolic diseases, infectious diseases experienced in the womb, drug use during pregnancy, familial diseases, etc. It is explained that there are factors such as. Opr. Dr. Adnan İpçioğlu states that cataract disease, which is generally seen after the age of 60, can be seen at earlier ages due to exposure to ultraviolet rays and radiation. Ophthalmology and Surgery Specialist Opr., one of the doctors of Medicana Bursa Hospital. Dr. Adnan İpçioğlu states that cataract disease can be seen at every stage of life. He says that cataract disease manifests itself with a change in the degree of glasses, late light scattering, and decreased vision and fogging. Opr. Dr. Adnan İpçioğlu 'Nowadays, thanks to the introduction of anesthesia and microsurgical techniques, cataract surgeries are performed as a day outpatient surgery, which does not require the patient to be hospitalized.' "The patient is discharged on the same day," he said. Thanks to the drop anesthesia used in cataract surgeries, it is performed without any injection into the eye and without any pain. Therefore, he said, patients can have surgery safely without fear of pain and suffering. Stating that cataract surgery has been developing in a revolutionary way in recent years, Opr. Dr. Adnan İpçioğlu is among the most important of these developments. Some of these are the advances in imaging and microscope systems that have developed in parallel with technological developments, advances in surgical instruments and the intraocular lenses we use during surgery. If we briefly talk about these developments; Thanks to OCT technologies used to make accurate intraocular lens calculations, one of the important factors affecting the success of cataract operations, the closest calculations can be made and the patient's desired glasses size is approximated after surgery. Opr. Dr. Adnan İpçioğlu says that thanks to the eye recognition systems installed on microscopes, stigmatous or toric lenses can be directly applied to patients with astigmatism. With the development of intraocular lens technologies, multifocal or trifocal lenses can be worn, eliminating the need for glasses that we have to use after surgery. Thanks to these lenses, we will be able to see both far and near without glasses
