Southend Private Private Hospital is proud to announce the arrival of the Victus Femtosecond laser for cataract surgery - the first in Essex. Using bladeless technology our surgeons are able to perform a more accurate and predicable procedure than that of the more traditional method.
In traditional cataract surgery, your surgeon uses a blade and then sound waves, suction, and irrigation to break up and remove the cloudy lens and prepare the eye for the new clear lens.
In laser cataract surgery, our surgeons use a precision laser beam to effectively remove the cloudy lens in preparation for the new clear lens to be inserted. The surgeon’s skills are complemented by the computer-guided accuracy and consistency of the laser.
Designed with the patients in mind, your surgeon can provide a precise and customised procedure.
