Cataract Surgery in Seoul

Restore clarity, color, and brightness to your world.



At B&VITT Eye Clinic in Seoul, we offer advanced cataract surgery to help patients regain clear, vibrant vision that may have been lost over time. Cataracts are a natural part of aging—but modern treatment makes it possible to correct them quickly, safely, and with long-lasting results.

Our team uses cutting-edge diagnostic technology and high-quality intraocular lenses (IOLs) to deliver customized, high-precision outcomes for every patient.

What Are Cataracts?

A cataract occurs when the natural lens inside your eye becomes cloudy, causing blurred vision, dull colors, glare sensitivity, and difficulty seeing at night. This condition develops gradually with age and is extremely common—especially after age 60.

Cataracts cannot be treated with medication or glasses, but cataract surgery is a simple and highly effective solution.

What Is Cataract Surgery?

Cataract surgery involves removing the clouded natural lens and replacing it with a clear artificial lens, known as an intraocular lens (IOL). The procedure is quick, painless, and typically performed under local anesthesia.

With today’s technology, cataract surgery not only restores vision—but can also correct nearsightedness, farsightedness, astigmatism, and even presbyopia, depending on the type of lens selected.

Signs You May Need Cataract Surgery

• Blurred or hazy vision
• Sensitivity to light or glare
• Faded or yellowed colors
• Poor night vision
• Double vision in one eye
• Frequent changes in eyeglass prescription

If cataracts begin to interfere with your daily life—such as reading, driving, or recognizing faces—it may be time to consider surgery.

Benefits of Cataract Surgery

• Clearer, brighter vision
• Enhanced color perception
• Sharper focus at near, intermediate, and far distances (with premium IOLs)
• Fast, painless recovery
• Long-term improvement in quality of life

Most patients experience a significant improvement in vision within just a few days.

What to Expect During the Procedure

• Before surgery: Your eyes will be examined, and measurements will be taken to choose the ideal intraocular lens. You'll receive instructions to follow before the procedure.
• During surgery: A small incision is made to gently remove the cloudy lens. A new IOL is then inserted in its place. The entire procedure usually takes 15–30 minutes per eye.
• After surgery: Most people return to light activities within a day or two and notice visual improvement quickly.

Intraocular Lens (IOL) Options

At B&VITT Eye Clinic, we offer a range of IOL options to suit your vision needs and lifestyle:

• Monofocal IOLs – Clear vision at one distance (typically far)
• Multifocal IOLs – Sharp vision at multiple distances
• Toric IOLs – Designed to correct astigmatism
• Trifocal & Extended Depth of Focus (EDOF) IOLs – Advanced lenses for greater visual freedom without glasses

Your surgeon will help you select the best lens based on your goals and eye health.

Recovery & Aftercare

• Use prescribed eye drops as directed
• Avoid heavy lifting or rubbing your eyes for a few days
• Wear sunglasses outdoors
• Attend all follow-up appointments for proper healing

Most patients enjoy full recovery and stable vision within a few weeks.
