As we age, the natural lens inside the eye can become cloudy, causing blurred vision, glare, and difficulty seeing at night — a condition known as cataract. When glasses or medication can no longer correct the problem, lens replacement surgery in Dhaka offers a safe, effective, and long-term solution to restore clear vision.
Lens replacement surgery, commonly performed as cataract or refractive lens exchange surgery, involves removing the eye's natural, clouded, or imperfectly focusing lens and replacing it with a clear, artificial intraocular lens (IOL). The procedure is minimally invasive, typically takes under 20 minutes per eye, and is performed on a day-care basis with local anaesthesia.
You may be a candidate for this procedure if you experience:
• Cloudy, blurred, or dim vision
• Increased sensitivity to glare, especially while driving at night
• Frequent changes in your glasses or contact lens prescription
• Faded or yellowed colour perception
• High refractive errors that are not fully corrected by glasses
A comprehensive eye examination, including corneal mapping and lens power calculation, helps our specialists determine whether lens replacement surgery in Dhaka is the right option for you.
Modern lens replacement surgery allows patients to choose an IOL that matches their lifestyle and visual goals:
• Monofocal IOLs – provide sharp vision at one distance, usually far vision, with glasses needed for near tasks
• Multifocal IOLs – correct near, intermediate, and distance vision, reducing dependency on glasses
• Toric IOLs – designed for patients with astigmatism
• Extended Depth of Focus (EDOF) IOLs – offer a smooth range of vision with fewer visual disturbances
Using advanced phacoemulsification (Phaco) technology, our surgeons make a tiny incision, gently break up the cloudy lens using ultrasound energy, and remove it before inserting the new artificial lens. Because the incision is so small, stitches are usually not required, and most patients notice improved vision within a day or two.
Most patients return home the same day and can resume light activities within 24 to 48 hours. To ensure a smooth recovery, your doctor will prescribe eye drops to prevent infection and inflammation, along with a follow-up schedule to monitor healing. Full visual stabilisation typically occurs within two to four weeks.
Our cataract and refractive surgery specialists use precise biometry and internationally certified IOLs to plan each surgery around your individual eye measurements and lifestyle needs. With a dedicated day-care surgical facility and structured post-operative care, we aim to give every patient the clearest, most comfortable outcome possible.
