How Premium Cataract Surgery Works?
The surgeon creates a micro-incision and uses ultrasound energy to gently remove the cloudy natural lens. A premium intraocular lens (IOL) is then implanted to restore vision.
This advanced procedure not only clears cataracts but also corrects refractive errors, offering sharper vision at multiple distances. Most patients notice improvement within hours, with continued recovery over the following days.

FAQs on cataract surgery in Belgium
What is cataract surgery?
ICL lens implantation is an outpatient procedure that takes only 10 to 15 minutes per eye. The implant lens is inserted through a small incision and unfolds behind the iris — no stitches are required. Recovery is typically rapid and most patients notice improved vision the next day.
How long does recovery from cataract surgery take?
Recovery after cataract surgery is straightforward. Most patients can resume daily activities within 1 to 2 days. Vision gradually stabilises over the following weeks. Medifocus schedules follow-up appointments to monitor your recovery, answer your questions, and ensure the best possible outcome for your eye health.
Which lenses are available during cataract surgery?
The ICL procedure is completely painless thanks to anaesthetic eye drops. You may feel gentle pressure, but no pain at all. The procedure takes just 10 to 15 minutes per eye. Most patients are pleasantly surprised by how smooth and comfortable the whole experience is.
Can cataracts come back after surgery?
Recovery after ICL lens implantation is fast. Most patients see well the day after the procedure and can return to work within 1 to 2 days. Since the cornea is not affected, there is no prolonged healing period. Medifocus monitors your recovery with scheduled follow-up appointments.
Is cataract surgery safe?
Yes. Cataract surgery is one of the safest and most commonly performed eye procedures in the world. At Medifocus, every surgery is carried out by an experienced surgeon in a certified operating theatre with thorough pre-operative screening to ensure maximum safety and consistently predictable results.
