Cataract Surgery in Tunisia: Regain Clear Vision

Are you suffering from decreased vision, light halos or discomfort in light? cataract surgery is a fast and safe procedure that restores quality vision. Discover this effective solution practiced by our expert ophthalmologists in Tunisia.

What is cataract?

Cataracts are a progressive clouding of the lens, the natural lens inside the eye. They usually occur with age, but can also be related to trauma, disease, or certain medications.

Symptoms include:

  • Blurry or cloudy vision
  • Increased sensitivity to light
  • Alteration of contrasts and colors
  • Double vision in one eye

The only curative solution is the cataract surgery, which involves replacing the cloudy lens with an intraocular implant.

When should cataract surgery be performed?

Surgery is recommended when:

  • Vision becomes a handicap in daily life (driving, reading, work)
  • Rapid progression of cataracts is observed
  • Another eye intervention is being considered (e.g. retinal treatment)

How does the procedure take place?

Before surgery

  • Complete eye assessment (acuity, pressure, fundus)
  • Biometrics: eye measurement to choose the right implant
  • Personalized choice of implant: monofocal, multifocal or toric

The day of the intervention

  • Outpatient: you go home the same day
  • Local anesthesia with eye drops (painless)
  • Duration: 15 to 30 minutes
  • Technique of phacoemulsification : lens fragmented by ultrasound, then replaced by an intraocular lens
  • Micro-incision without suture

After surgery: fast recovery and visible results

  • Improved vision from the first days
  • Vision stabilized in a few weeks
  • Return to normal activities quickly (avoid swimming, intense sport, eye rubbing for 1 to 2 weeks)

What types of implants are available for cataract surgery?

  • Monofocal implants : correction of distance vision (glasses required for reading)
  • Multifocal implants : correction of distance and near vision (reduction of dependence on glasses)
  • Toric implants : simultaneous correction of astigmatism

The choice depends on your lifestyle, your expectations, and your eye analysis. Your ophthalmologist will advise you on the most suitable option.

Why choose cataract surgery?

  • Rapid restoration of vision
  • Secure and standardized procedure
  • Sustainable improvement in the quality of life
  • Possible correction of myopia, hyperopia, presbyopia or astigmatism

In over 95% of cases, patients experience significant improvements in their visual acuity. Perception of color, contrast, and brightness is significantly improved. The results are stable and long-lasting.
