patch, which will be removed at their follow-up visit the next
day. Subsequent follow-up examinations will be scheduled
approximately every two weeks until the eye is healed.
Healing post-surgery is also easier for most cataract pa-
tients today. “Key-Whitman uses the most advanced tech-
nology available in the market, so healing occurs more
quickly and with fewer complications. Even better, once the
eyes have healed and adjusted, most patients are surprised
by the improvement in their vision. They can see clearly
again and notice how colors are much more vibrant than
what they could see with cataracts. Depending on the type
of intraocular lenses patients choose, many become less
dependent on glasses,” Dr. Faber says.
You should also be aware that the surgeon won’t operate
on both eyes during the same visit. Surgeries are typically
scheduled one to six weeks apart, with three weeks being
the average time. This allows plenty of time for the first eye
to heal and the patient to realize the full extent of correction
in that eyes.
