As many people age, cataracts, or clouding of the normally clear lens of the eye, are an increasingly common problem. Symptoms of cataracts include:
- blurred vision
- light sensitivity
- double vision in one eye
- poor night vision
- color distortion
- glare
NuVision Laser offers modern, state-of-the-art cataract care to help patients regain the freedom of clear vision.

Toric cataract replacement lenses. This unique design makes it possible to reduce or eliminate corneal astigmatism and significantly improve uncorrected distance vision, independent of eyeglasses and contact lenses.

Cataract surgeon, Lori Moore, MD, uses the latest technique in performing cataract surgery. Using only a topical anesthetic to numb the eye, the surgeon creates a small incision and uses high-energy sound waves to break the cataract into microscopic particles, which are then removed from the eye. To compensate for the removal of the eye's natural lens, an intra-ocular lens (IOL) is implanted into the eye. After using this special small incision, the eye remains tightly sealed by the natural outward pressure within your eye and no stitches are usually required.
The cataract removal technique Dr. Moore uses is often preferred to traditional methods because patients are very comfortable during and after the procedure. Because this new technique uses eye drops to numb the eye, usually the need for an anesthetic shot, stitches or a post-surgery patch is eliminated. Another advantage is that most patients notice a rapid visual improvement with this technique.
