What to Expect During Cataract Surgery
Every stage of your surgical journey is carefully coordinated by Dr. Stanciu and her clinical team to ensure safety, comfort, and optimal outcomes.
Pre-Operative Care
Comprehensive ocular mapping and biometric measuring to select the correct premium IOL lifestyle lens parameters tailored to your unique visual anatomy.
Day of Surgery
Most patients only require topical eye-drop anesthesia — no needles or injections. Cataract surgery is performed on an outpatient basis, allowing patients to return home the same day.
Post-Operative Recovery
Following surgery, patients return home the same day and are seen the next day for a post-operative appointment to monitor recovery and track visual progress.
Frequently Asked Questions
No. Dr. Stanciu performs advanced no-stitch cataract surgery using a small self-sealing incision. This technique minimizes recovery time and reduces the risk of infection or complications.
An intraocular lens (IOL) is an artificial lens implanted during cataract surgery to replace the eye's natural lens after it has been removed. The IOL restores focusing power and can be customized to address other refractive errors such as astigmatism.
Dr. Stanciu offers both monofocal and multifocal intraocular lenses (IOLs). Monofocal lenses provide a single focal point — most commonly for distance vision — while multifocal lenses are designed to provide a range of vision from near to distance. Dr. Stanciu will help determine which option best meets your visual needs and lifestyle.
Most patients experience minimal to no discomfort during cataract surgery. Dr. Stanciu uses only topical eye-drop anesthesia — no needles or injections are required. Patients typically describe a sensation of pressure, but not pain.
Many patients notice improved clarity within 24 hours of surgery. Vision continues to stabilize over the following days and weeks as the eye heals and adjusts to the new intraocular lens.
