Getting cataract surgery can greatly improve eyesight and quality of life for patients with cloudy or hazy vision.

The surgery involves removing the cloudy lens and replacing it with a clear artificial intraocular lens (IOL).

Cataract surgery is usually done as a day procedure, meaning you don’t have to stay overnight in the hospital.

In Singapore, this surgery is widely available at public hospitals like SNEC (Singapore National Eye Centre), Tan Tock Seng Hospital, NUH, and at many private eye clinics.

The cost of cataract surgery varies based on factors like your choice of hospital, surgeon, type of lens used, and whether you have insurance or Medisave coverage.

Recovery is usually smooth, with only mild discomfort or dryness that goes away quickly.

If you have other eye conditions, your doctor will advise if combined treatments are necessary or if special types of lenses (like multifocal or toric IOLs) are suitable for you.

Overall, if you notice blurry vision or trouble with daily activities, consult an eye more info specialist to find out if cataract surgery is right for you.
