What are the benefits and risks of Cataract Surgery?
Your surgeon will speak with you about the benefits and risks involved before your procedure.
Benefits of Cataract Surgery:
Quick recovery -you will notice a significant improvement within days of surgery.
Reduced dependence on glasses/contacts (especially with premium multifocal/trifocal/toric lenses).
Correction of astigmatism if using toric IOL or laser astigmatism correction.
Long-lasting results: the artificial lens does not cloud (though secondary opacification of the capsule may occur).
Improved night vision - makes evening activities and night driving safer and more comfortable.
Reduced glare and halos - especially helpful when driving at night or in bright light.
Risks/side effects (not exhaustive):
Mild discomfort, scratchy sensation or irritation in the eye after surgery.
Glare/halos may occur temporarily, particularly with multifocal/trifocal lenses — adaptation required.
Possible complications: infection, inflammation, posterior capsule rupture, lens misposition, need for enhancement (rare). Centre for Sight reports a posterior capsule rupture rate of less than 1:800 (compared with ~2% nationally) when using femtosecond laser assisted surgery.
Some patients may still require glasses for certain tasks depending on lens choice. Your surgeon will tailor the discussion of risks in your consultation.

Patient Success Stories
A first class experience
The whole process, start to finish, is first class. The facility at East Grinstead is superb and the staff were friendly and professional. The consultant, Saj Khan, is fantastic, a great communicator as well as being a leader in his work.
I had replacement lenses, after 3 months they became a little cloudy, distorting my vision. This is a known problem. I booked a consultation, within 2 hours I had been assessed and had laser treatment. No fuss, no problem, job done.

Lens Replacement with Mr Shahnazaryan
The staff, experience and ultimately the outcome is why I have given this review a 5star. Mr David Shahnazaryans manner and expertise is outstanding. Whilst in the theatre Dr Lam kept me relaxed and comfortable with her kindness and fantastic professionalism. All the staff at CFS from the admin team, reception, clinic and theatre were excellent. I recommend them to everyone.

I had Laser lens replacement with trifocal lenses for both eyes and the results are just amazing. The thorough testing and information I received pre and post operative was excellent. I highly recommend Mr Sheraz Daya who in my opinion is an “eye god” his lovely wife and highly professional team to anyone seeking this type of surgery.

5* Lens Replacement Procedure
I had tri focal lens replacement, both eyes done on the same day by Mr Daya. I wish I’d had it done sooner, it’s totally life changing. I researched the procedure for many months and selected Centre for Sight and I’m so glad I did. The whole process is first class from the very first contact, the initial tests could not be more thorough and the procedure is totally painless. The whole team could not be more helpful, I cannot praise them enough. I have perfect all round vision now so if you’re considering having the procedure done then this is definitely the place to choose you won’t regret it
