In this video, Dr. Srinivas K. N., Senior Consultant at Shekar Eye Hospital, Bangalore, explains what happens during laser cataract surgery (also called robotic cataract surgery).
He shares why the procedure is considered “robotic”: before surgery, all patient parameters—including keratometry and other clinical details—are fed into a computer. This ensures the process is carried out with high precision and accuracy.
Key benefits highlighted include:
Highly precise corneal incisions and accurate capsular opening
Better sizing of the capsular axis
Efficient fragmentation of the cataract nucleus with laser, reducing energy use and tissue damage
Faster recovery and improved post-operative vision outcomes
Overall, laser cataract surgery offers patients a safer, more precise, and highly effective treatment option for restoring clear vision.
