The top cataract surgery Chicago providers in North Chicago use the most advanced cataract surgery techniques and IOL technologies. The IOL, or intraocular lens, is the artificial lens that is implanted in the eye during surgery after the natural lens has been removed. In some cases, the IOL can help the patients see better than they did before the patient developed cataracts. This is because the top surgeons can choose the artificial lens to not only replace the focusing power of the natural lens, but also to add or subtract focusing power that would normally need to be corrected with glasses or contact lenses.
The premium IOLs, called AcrySof ReSTOR, ReZoom and Crystalens, can help a patient to see at near and at distance, not just distance vision, as with the standard IOL. Many North Chicago patients now enjoy this type of youthful vision, including those patients living in Lake Villa, Northbrook, Highland Park and Waukegan.
During the cataract surgery procedure in Skokie, Libertyville, Gurnee and Vernon Hills, the skilled cataract surgeon makes an incision on the outer part of the cornea. This incision is where the eye doctor inserts a probe to enter the eye to remove the natural lens and replace it with an IOL. Typically for the best North Chicago cataract surgeons, the procedure requires no needle, no stitch and no patch.
