While standard cataract surgery is extremely safe and effective, the laser technology used in premium cataract surgery allows for greater precision while minimizing post-operative healing time. The crowning touch is the replacement of the natural lenses of the eyes with premium intraocular lenses<\/strong>, or IOLs<\/strong>, which restore excellent vision at a range of distances and could even eliminate the need for glasses and contact lenses. The use of the revolutionary ORA\u2122 system<\/strong>, which uses digital imaging to gauge the appropriate power of IOL needed before it is placed, helps to ensure the best possible results.<\/p>\n

Drs.\u00a0Richard Gordon\u00a0and\u00a0Sonia Kern are pleased to offer the option of premium cataract surgery<\/strong> at their Pomona<\/strong>, NY<\/strong> practice as it offers patients the opportunity not only to rid themselves of cataracts, but also to achieve better vision than they have had in years, if not decades. Although most insurance policies do not cover the additional costs associated with premium cataract surgery, we offer low- and even no-interest financing options to help make this extraordinary treatment accessible to patients on virtually any budget.<\/p>\n

Premium Diagnostics<\/h2>\n

Before moving ahead with premium cataract surgery, we will use advanced diagnostic tools to make certain that you are not experiencing glaucoma or other issues affecting the retina or cornea. These conditions can raise the risk of complications associated with cataract surgery, so it is important to conduct a screening to determine whether this procedure is right for you.<\/p>\n

The Premium Cataract Surgery Procedure<\/h2>\n

Before the procedure, anesthesia will be administered so that you will remain comfortable and relaxed throughout the procedure. Next, the surgeon will use a femtosecond laser to create an incision in the cornea, the dome-shaped front surface of the eye. Your surgeon will then use a laser to segment the crystalline lens into several small pieces. A special suction instrument will be used to remove these lens fragments. To complete the surgery, your surgeon will replace the lens with an IOL.<\/p>\n

Premium Lenses<\/h2>\n

Insurance typically covers standard standard monofocal IOLs. These restore focus at one distance, but usually require the patient to wear glasses to focus at other distances. However, patients can choose multifocal IOLs that provide focus at a range of distances, and can minimize the need for corrective eyewear. We offer Crystalens\u00ae<\/strong>, AcrySof\u00ae ReSTOR<\/strong>, and Tecnis\u00ae multifocal lenses<\/strong>, as well as AcrySof\u00ae<\/strong>, Tecnis\u00ae<\/strong>,\u00a0and Trulign\u2122 toric IOLs<\/strong> to address astigmatism. Our doctors will help you choose the best type of IOL for your goals and budget, and the ORA\u2122 system will help us determine which lens power you require.<\/p>\n
