Michael T. Furlong, MD, is a fellowship-trained cataract surgeon with a specialization in small incision cataract and laser refractive surgeries. Dr. Furlong has studied under world-renowned cataract and refractive surgery leader, Dr. Howard Gimbel, and has taught ophthalmology techniques worldwide. In recognition of his exceptional skills, Dr. Furlong has been named one of San Jose's "Top Docs" numerous times by his peers, as well as one of LaserVision Centers' "Top 5 Surgeons Nationwide," "Top 50 Practices" and "Top 50 Surgeons Nationwide."


Dr. Furlong performs advanced small-incision cataract surgery with premium intraocular lens implants (IOLs). During the procedure, Dr. Furlong makes a tiny incision in the eye to extract the clouded lens and implant an IOL. He offers multifocal IOLs, including AcrySof ReSTOR and ReZoom, to correct for both near and distance vision, as well as the Crystalens accommodating lens to help patients change focus between objects at various distances. After the surgery, patients often enjoy clearer vision than ever before.
In addition to cataract surgery, Dr. Furlong offers refractive lens exchange for patients with presbyopia who wish to correct near and distance vision. Patients who are not good LASIK candidates can receive Visian implantable collamer lenses or Verisyse phakic intraocular lens implants, which are placed over the eyes' natural lenses. In both surgeries, patients can achieve clear vision while reducing their dependence on glasses and contact lenses.
