Laser Cataract San Antonio

Laser Cataract San Antonio- Ophthalmologist J.T. Kavanagh MD of Eye Associates of South Texas performs laser cataract surgery on patients from all his 11 locations: San Antonio Medical Center, San Antonio North Central, Seguin, New Braunfels, La Vernia, San Marcos, Hondo, Castroville, Luling, Lockhart, and Gonzales.

Laser Cataract surgery is a newer technique to aid with the removal of cataracts more precisely than is possible with manual or basic methods. Dr. Kavanagh has performed well over 25,000 cataract surgeries (more than any surgeon in the region) and is well versed in reproducible manual cataract surgery, but even he admits the laser can be more precise in the placement of incisions and fragmentation of the cataract. He believes the increased accuracy can provide better outcomes in cataract surgery for some cases.

Dr. Kavanagh uses both the LenSx and Lensar platforms for his cataract patients. The procedure has been described as quick and painless.
