The surgeons of Washington Eye Physicians and Surgeons typically begin cataract surgery by creating a small incision using a no-stitch technique. The cataract is removed through this incision and replaced with a premium intraocular lens implant (IOL). The surgeons offer a number of advanced lenses which can correct for distance and near vision, including AcrySof ReSTOR, ReZoom and Crystalens. Crystalens is an accommodating (focusing) lens that allows the eye to change focus between near and distant objects. ReSTOR and ReZoom are multifocal lenses that also correct for both nearsightedness and farsightedness. The surgeons also offer lens implants that correct astigmatism.

Visian implantable collamer lenses (ICL) are also available at Washington Eye Physicians and Surgeons. These advanced lenses are designed for patients who are not eligible for LASIK due to high myopia.
