Cataract Surgery

Cataract Surgery - McMann Eye Institute

Cataract surgery is a safe and effective procedure designed to restore clear vision by removing the clouded natural lens of the eye and replacing it with an artificial intraocular lens (IOL). At McMann Eye Institute in Ewa Beach, HI, our skilled ophthalmologists use advanced surgical techniques to ensure a comfortable experience and successful outcomes for our patients.

Most patients notice significant improvement in their vision shortly after surgery, with minimal downtime. Cataract surgery not only improves clarity and brightness of vision, but also enhances quality of life by allowing individuals to return to everyday activities such as reading, driving, and enjoying the beauty of Hawai‘i with renewed clarity.
