Results for tag: "Cataract Surgery Complications"

Cataract surgery is one of the most common procedures performed in the field of ophthalmology. While it is generally considered safe, like any surgical intervention, it does carry potential complications which can range from mild side effects to more serious conditions that can affect vision. The market for managing and addressing cataract surgery complications encompasses products and services involved in both prevention and treatment of these issues. These complications include intraoperative issues such as anterior or posterior capsule tear, and postoperative problems like infection, inflammation, and posterior capsule opacification (PCO), which can lead to reduced visual clarity. Additionally, the industry provides solutions for the correction of refractive errors post-surgery such as spectacles, contact lenses or additional surgical treatments like laser eye surgery. The ophthalmic market includes a number of companies that specialize in products for the anticipation and resolution of cataract surgery complications. Some enterprises focus on producing intraocular lenses (IOLs) with advanced designs to minimize postoperative complications, whereas others provide pharmaceuticals to prevent infections and manage inflammation. Notable companies in this sector include Alcon, Johnson & Johnson Vision, Bausch + Lomb, Carl Zeiss Meditec, and Hoya Corporation. These organizations also offer educational resources and training programs for eye care professionals to improve surgical outcomes and manage complications effectively. Show Less Read more
