Cataracts
LENSAR® Laser System
Laser-assisted cataract surgery is an advanced approach to cataract removal that uses a highly precise laser to perform critical steps of the procedure. Instead of relying solely on manual surgical instruments, your surgeon uses sophisticated laser technology and detailed 3D imaging to create a customized treatment plan based on the unique anatomy of your eye.
During the procedure, the laser helps create precise incisions, softens the cloudy lens (cataract) before it is removed, and assists in preparing the eye for placement of your new intraocular lens (IOL). By combining advanced imaging with laser precision, laser-assisted cataract surgery allows for a personalized approach designed to support excellent visual outcomes.
We are proud to offer laser-assisted cataract surgery using the advanced LENSAR Laser System. This innovative technology combines intelligent 3D imaging with laser precision to help your surgeon plan and perform your cataract procedure with exceptional accuracy.
Every eye is unique. The LENSAR Laser System creates a detailed 3D model of your eye, allowing your surgeon to customize your procedure based on your individual anatomy rather than using a one-size-fits-all approach.
The laser performs key portions of cataract surgery with an exceptional level of precision. This accuracy can be especially beneficial when creating surgical incisions and preparing the eye for your lens implant, helping optimize lens positioning and visual results.
The LENSAR Laser System softens the cataract before it is removed, reducing the amount of ultrasound energy needed during surgery. Combined with advanced imaging that provides your surgeon with detailed guidance throughout the procedure, this technology supports a gentle and precise surgical experience.
For patients with astigmatism, the laser can create highly accurate corneal incisions that may reduce or correct astigmatism during cataract surgery, helping improve your vision after the procedure.
Our goal is to combine advanced technology with surgical expertise to provide a customized cataract procedure designed to help you achieve your best possible vision.
Both traditional and laser-assisted cataract surgery are safe and effective ways to restore vision affected by cataracts. The primary difference lies in how certain steps of the procedure are performed.
Your ophthalmologist will recommend the procedure that is best suited to your eyes, your lifestyle, and your vision goals. During your consultation, we’ll discuss your treatment options and help you decide whether laser-assisted cataract surgery with the LENSAR Laser System is right for you.

Cassidy was knowledgeable and friendly when evaluating my eyes for contacts. And Dr. Purser was very prompt and thorough in examining my eyes. I've always gone to Denver Eye Surgeons and am always pleased with their technology, doctors, and processes!
A very pleasant visit. My technician Monica totally deserves my gratitude for attention to detail. She is a great listener and had answers to my questions. She made me feel comfortable and important; and actually Monica took time with me. I did NOT feel like I was rushed or pushed. Thanks Monica!! Great customer job!!!
Kayla M. did an exceptional job at making me feel comfortable. especially since it was a 1.5 session/ eye exam.
My wife kayleen has had a real positive experience at DW Eye. She appreciates the support she gets from a nurse named Tania. Makes her feel more calm and explains everything to her that’s being done
Tanya was great, she explained the process and I felt very comfortable. Enjoyed meeting Dr.Jones and feel that I am in great hands.
I went today for my annual eye exam. Kayla greeted me and took me for all the preliminary testing. She is very pleasant, explained it all thoroughly and quite professional. They are lucky to have her as an employee.
The waiting area is very nice, big and comfortable. Dr. Andrews and everyone else I dealt with were pleasant and very efficient.
Dr Andrews and his staff are amazing! I got an appointment within 2 days and the whole visit was well organized and very smooth!
What a wonderful place, staff, and location. Dr Crosby was very knowledgeable and professional, truly, top notch. The rest of the staff was just as incredible. I was very pleased with my whole experience. That's coming from a skeptic. I would go back for Dr. Crosby alone, but the rest of the staff were also very helpful. They even tightened my glasses because my 13-month-old decided to bend them a little bit too much 😂. It's that little attention to detail, and the knowledgeable staff like Dr Crosby that made me want to give this place a five star! From the friendly faces at the check-in desk to the delicious coffee machine to the knowledgeable medical staff, and the amazing doctor. All five stars!
Dr. Purser was extremely knowledgeable about patient needs. She was also willing to go above and beyond what I’ve seen most doctors do by helping find a way to reduce drug cost.
Dr Tetrault and his techs were very thorough and although I didn’t get the best news that I was hoping for, my eyes didn’t get any worse. Also, Penny in the optical department was very helpful in getting my glasses!
Kassidy was very thorough, knowledgeable and patient. Certainly an asset to this organization
Always a great experience. We have been clients of DES since we moved to Denver in 1993. Everyone from reception to checkout is 1st rate.
Dr Crosby did a good job in explaining to me how to treat my dry eye condition. The Dr also suggested I see a cataract specialist to have my right eye corrected.
I hit 2 as far as satisfaction when I meant to type 1- sorry- service was wonderful, the doctor & staff were winderful. Professional & efficient. No complaints at all!
Dr Tetrault has managed my glaucoma for many years and he and the staff there have provided excellent care at every appointment. I feel confident I am receiving the best care possible and highly recommended him and Denver Eye Surgeons. We have my step daughter going there now to deal with macular degeneration.
The female surgeon I saw was very professional and gave me information about my eye that should have been given at my last visit about a spot on back of my eye. She was informative and thorough.
The staff and the doctor I saw for my upcoming cataract surgery was fantastic they were polite courteous and answered every question that I had I'm getting my first cataract surgery done next month
I recently saw Claire Purser, OD and Kassidy Campton, contac lens technician at Denver Eye Surgeons. They were both professional, knowledgeable and personable. Took time to answer all questions. The entire staff at the office deserve 5 star ratings.
I want to commend Kayla M. for her care and understanding with patients during check in. She is always cheerful and calm, never rushing anyone. A true professional!
