Cataract Surgery

A cataract is a clouding of the natural lens in the eye, which causes an effect similar to a dirty windshield causing glare, hazy or diminished vision, and a fading of colors. Cataract surgery is one of the most commonly performed surgeries in the United States and involves the removal of your natural lens and replacement with a manufactured lens. Our Las Vegas surgical team typically takes about 15 to 30 minutes per eye to perform the operation. The procedure is typically performed using local anesthesia, which numbs the eye and surrounding area to ensure patient comfort.

Custom Vision Correction

If you are over 45 and frustrated with nearsightedness, farsightedness, or astigmatism, one option is Refractive Lens Exchange (RLE), which is an increasingly popular approach to combating presbyopia and other vision issues. RLE eye surgery is very similar to cataract surgery, extremely safe, and involves replacing the natural lens in your eye. It is particularly beneficial with presbyopia, enhancing patients’ near vision and far vision. Another major benefit of RLE surgery is that you will never need cataract surgery.


Customized Premium Lens Technology

The lens you select is an important decision and should be based upon variables that only you can determine. Medical manufacturers have created several categories of premium lenses, and each category meets specific visual demands.

My wife and I each had cataract surgery between 25 and 30 years ago here in Las Vegas. My situation was that each of my eyes was worse than 20/1000. We moved away to the San Francisco area for six years and then moved back to Las Vegas. I would give Dr. Pizio 6 stars if I could. She was able to correct my right eye to 20/20 with the cataract surgery. Her scheduler at the time wanted to schedule the second eye two weeks after the first surgery. She told the scheduler that the second surgery had to be one week, not two weeks, after the first surgery because of the large corrections. She did not want me to have no lense in my glasses for the right eye and a coke bottle lense in the eye waiting to be operated on. The right eye had other issues for which a retinologist in the San Francisco area should be left alone. He did comment that whoever did the cataract surgery did a fantastic job both removing the cataracts and correcting the vision in BOTH eyes. We had no eye issues immediately after the surgery and any other time since the surgery.
