Phacoemulsification with IOL implantation in Nomadoc
About the clinic
Phacoemulsification with IOL implantation is a modern cataract surgery available through Nomadoc in Mazapil, Mexico. This procedure replaces a cloudy natural lens with a clear artificial one to restore vision. The clinic works with English-speaking specialists and holds accreditation from the International Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (ISAPS).
Advanced Cataract Extraction Methods
Surgeons at the clinic primarily use phacoemulsification. This method uses ultrasound waves to break the cataract into tiny pieces. The surgeon then removes these fragments through a very small incision. This technique typically allows for faster healing and a quick return to daily life. For specific cases, doctors also perform extracapsular lens extraction.
Patients can choose from several types of Intraocular Lenses (IOLs). These options help customize the vision outcome based on lifestyle needs. The available lenses include:
- Monofocal lenses for clear vision at one set distance.
- Multifocal lenses to help see clearly at both near and far distances.
- EDOF lenses (Extended Depth of Focus) for a continuous range of high-quality vision.
Specialized Surgical Expertise
The surgical team includes experts with international training and certifications. Dr. Giselle Bernal Martínez is an ophthalmologist certified by the Mexican Council of Ophthalmology. She specializes in cataract, glaucoma, and refractive surgery. Dr. Orlando Daniel Quintanar Haro brings over 5 years of experience to the team. He earned a Master’s degree in Medical Sciences from Charité University of Berlin. Dr. José Antonio Pérez Jiménez also has over 5 years of experience. He is a member of the European Glaucoma Society and focuses on anterior segment microsurgery.
Diagnostics and Recovery
Before the surgery, patients undergo a thorough eye exam. This includes optical coherence tomography (OCT) to map the eye. Doctors also use tonometry to check eye pressure and perform visual field testing. These steps help the surgeon choose the best lens and surgical approach for each person.
The procedure is performed on an outpatient basis. Most patients return to their normal activities within a few days. Post-operative care includes a follow-up consultation and necessary medications to help the eye heal. The clinic provides support for international patients through virtual consultations and credential verification for all doctors.
