Dr. Pham performs advanced cataract surgery with his trademark "Pham hook" instrument to produce remarkable results. First, he creates a small incision in the eye that is less than three millimeters long. Next, he rotates the clouded lens (cataract) using the "Pham hook" and then gently suctions it out. Once the cataract is removed, he inserts the advanced Acrysof AcrySof ReSTOR intraocular lens implant (IOL), the most widely used multifocal IOL in the world. This premium IOL provides for near, intermediate and distance vision, often eliminating the need for eye glasses or contact lenses. Using his advanced techniques, Dr. Pham has inserted more than 3000 AcrySof ReSTOR IOLs into the capsular bag without breaking a single capsule, a record second to none. Dr. Pham performs surgical procedures at the Aesthetic and Refractive Surgery Medical Center, a facility that is endorsed by the Accreditation Association for Ambulatory Health Care. He also has hospital privileges at Stanford University Hospital, O'Connor Hospital and Good Samaritan Hospital.
