Company Profile: Cataract, which is the clouding of lens in the eye, typically affects people from the age of 50. In Singapore, the percentage of elderly patients affected by cataracts is about 78.6%.1
 
The number of people affected by cataracts also increases with age. For instance, the condition affects 63.6% of people between 60 and 64 years, and 94.6% in people 75 years and older.

Due to the high incidence of cataracts in Singapore, cataract surgery has become one of the most commonly performed ophthalmic operations. With an aging population and the elderly becoming more active, doctors anticipate more will opt for cataract surgery to enjoy a better quality of life.

The conventional method requires eye surgeons to use ultrasound energy to breakdown the cloudy lens before they are removed. This method usually reduces the number of endothelial cells in the eye, which are responsible for maintaining the cornea at a hydration level of no more than 80% for optical transparency. This means that people with low endothelial cell count may not be suitable for the conventional method of cataract surgery as it increases the risks of cornea decompensation, which may require cornea transplant in severe cases.

The lens cubing ability of the Femtosecond Laser Assisted Cataract Surgery minimises and can even eliminate the need for ultrasound energy. It cuts cataract lens into cubes as small as 0.02mm in height, which aids in precision cataract break-up and removal; thereby softening the cataract significantly and help with easy removal.
