What Is Cataract Eye Surgery?
Cataract eye surgery is a procedure that involves removing the cloudy lens from the eye and replacing it with a clear artificial lens. As people age, the natural lens in their eyes can become cloudy, leading to blurred vision, sensitivity to light, and other visual disturbances. Cataracts, the leading cause of blindness globally, affect millions of people worldwide.
In fact, approximately 1 in 4 people around the world develop cataracts at some point in their lives.
What Are The Challenges?
Longer Patient Wait Times
The current gap in meeting the demand is expected to widen over the next years
as the number of cataract surgeries is projected to double over the next 20 years,
while the number of trained surgeons and nurses continues to decline
Human Limitations in Dexterity and Sensing
Due to tremors and other constraints
Inconsistent Surgical Outcomes
Due to variations in surgeon skills
We are on a mission to tackle those challenges and provide a brighter future for eye surgery, offering superior, consistent outcomes and improved accessibility
