Her clinical expertise in phacoemulsification, the gold standard for modern cataract surgery, has helped thousands of patients achieve excellent visual outcomes with minimally invasive techniques.
What is Phacoemulsification?
Phacoemulsification is an advanced cataract procedure that uses ultrasonic energy to gently break apart the clouded natural lens before removing it through a tiny incision. The cataract is then replaced with a premium intraocular lens (IOL), allowing patients to regain clearer vision with faster healing and minimal discomfort.
