Elderly Health

Includes cataract surgery, geriatric medicine, geriatric psychiatry and continence management.

Cataract Surgery

As people age, the lens of the eye can become ‘cloudy’, covered with an opaque film, affecting sight, eventually causing total loss of sight. Cataract surgery involves removal of the entire clouded lens (the cataract), usually followed by replacement of the lens with an intraocular lens (IOL) made of plastic, silicone, acrylic or other material.
