Welcome to Suman Eye Clinic Your Trusted Eye Specialist in Mumbai

A cataract is a gradual clouding of the eye's natural crystalline lens, which blocks light from passing clearly to the retina. It usually develops due to aging, resulting in blurred, cloudy, or dim vision.

Cataract surgery should be performed when the cloudiness begins to interfere with your daily life activities, such as reading, driving (especially at night), or watching television. You do not need to wait for the cataract to "mature" or harden completely.

No, the surgery is virtually painless. We apply topical anesthetic eye drops to numb the eye before starting the phaco procedure. Most patients feel only a slight sensation of touch or fluid flow around the eye during the 10-15 minute surgery.

Most patients notice a significant improvement in their vision within 24 to 48 hours after surgery. Complete physical healing of the micro-incision typically takes around 4 to 6 weeks, during which you must follow post-operative drop regimens and precautions.

The "best" lens depends on your lifestyle needs and ocular measurements. Monofocal lenses provide clear vision at one distance (usually distance), requiring reading glasses. Multifocal lenses correct both distance and near vision to reduce spectacle dependency. Toric lenses are ideal for patients with significant astigmatism. Our specialists help you make the best choice during evaluation.
