LASIK and cataract surgery both improve vision — but they are not the same procedure, and they're not for the same patient. 👁️

LASIK reshapes the cornea to correct refractive error — nearsightedness, farsightedness, and astigmatism — and is typically performed on younger patients with healthy lenses.

Cataract surgery removes the eye's cloudy natural lens and replaces it with an artificial one. It restores clarity that cataracts have taken away, and with today's advanced lens options, it can correct refractive error at the same time.

Dr. Brandon Menke at ilumin in Omaha covers what each procedure addresses and why the difference matters.

Most people don't know they have cataracts until they're already affecting their daily life. 👁️

Blurry vision. Glare at night. Colors that look dull or washed out. These aren't just signs of getting older — they're signs that the lens inside your eye is changing.

Dr. Brandon Menke at ilumin walks through what a cataract is, why it happens, and what your options look like. The good news? It's one of the most treatable conditions in medicine.

February is Low Vision Awareness Month. 👁️

Low vision affects millions of Americans — and it's not the same as blindness. It's vision loss that glasses, contacts, or surgery can't fully fix, making everyday things like reading, cooking, and recognizing faces genuinely hard.

The leading causes are age-related macular degeneration, glaucoma, cataracts, and diabetic retinopathy. By 2030, an estimated 7.2 million Americans will be living with it.

The right care makes a real difference. At ilumin in Omaha, our expert physicians and ophthalmologists work with low vision patients to make the most of their remaining sight and help them stay independent.

If you or someone you know is struggling with vision that standard correction isn't fixing, there are options.

"5 stars isn't enough." 🙌 🥹

Reviews like this are exactly why we do what we do. When a patient says they've never seen this well in their whole life, that's not just a win for Dr. Menke and our team — that's a life meaningfully changed.
