How does the eye focus once the cataract is removed?
There are several methods to restore focusing ability of the eye: 1) an intraocular lens (Intraocular Lenses (IOLs) in Children) is sometimes placed in the eye at the time of cataract removal. 2) a contact lens can be placed on the surface of the eye. 3) glasses can be used to focus the light rays. Glasses are often very thick and are generally not a good option with unilateral cataracts.
