Over 19.34 million people are needlessly blind due to cataracts. Cataracts cannot be prevented, but they can be cured with one of the simplest and safest surgeries. Cataract Surgery was not always the safest surgery! In 600 BC, cataracts were treated with a technique called couching. The eye would be struck with a blunt object to force the zonules to break, and the lens would dislocate into the vitreous cavity.
Today, Cataract Surgery has evolved into Robotic Surgery, Google Neuron Mapping, FemtoSecond Lasers and more. These 21st Century trends and technologies have instrumental in the evolution of Cataract Surgery for Dr. Bob Cionni and Dr. Kerry D. Solomon. Their varied techniques are highlighted below.
