Laser-Assisted Cataract Surgery

LENSAR® Laser System

What Is Laser-Assisted Cataract Surgery?

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.

Why We Choose the LENSAR® Laser System

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.

Personalized for Your Eyes

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.

Advanced Precision

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.

A Gentle Approach

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.

Astigmatism Treatment

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.

Laser-Assisted vs Traditional Cataract Surgery

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.

Traditional Cataract Surgery

Laser-Assisted Cataract Surgery

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.

Much better manner then the prior Dr. She answered all my questions and was very thorough and kind as well.

On the 13th of March 2026 I went in for a problem that had been increasing over time. The doctors assistant was attentive, professional and cheerful. Much appreciated. I was lucky to get Ophthalmologist Jonathan Noguchi, M.D.. He was professional, likeable and was calm during my apprehension. He identified my problem and explained what it was and how he could solve it. This procedure was to remove enflamed and plugged tear ducts and he had to insert a needle in 3 different places on both eyes, and I mean next to the eye to numb these spots. Then he simply removed the inflammation with small scissors. I would recommend this doctor. He was easy to like, knew what he was doing and he got right on it and had me going out the door lickety split..Thanks doc. I look and feel much better!
