What is TACS (Technology Assisted Cataract Surgery)?
TACS is an advanced form of cataract surgery that uses precision technology to assist key steps of the procedure. It is designed to enhance accuracy, consistency, and surgical planning while removing the cataract and implanting an artificial lens.
How is TACS different from regular cataract surgery?
In TACS, technology assists critical steps such as corneal incisions and lens fragmentation, whereas regular cataract surgery relies mainly on manual techniques. This added technological support allows for more precise execution.
What are the benefits of TACS over traditional cataract surgery?
TACS offers enhanced precision, improved consistency, and better control during surgery. It may also support more accurate lens placement and a smoother recovery process for suitable patients.
How much does TACS cataract surgery cost at Mehta Eye Clinic?
