Dr Zoran Aleksic is one of Cape Town's most respected Eye Surgeons offering laser eye surgery, cataract surgery and Glaucoma.

He has been involved in Laser Refractive Surgery during his specialist training and started to perform laser in private practice from Laser surgery is performed in a doctor's office or eye clinic. In some case, the doctor also may numb the area behind the eye to prevent any discomfort. With short-sightedness near vision is better then far vision. Before surgery detailed measurements are done on the focus of the eye and shape of the cornea. The two most commonly performed laser techniques are LASIK and PRK. The WaveLight EX500 is the fastest growing laser system both in Europe and the USA and is soon expected to overtake the older systems as the laser chosen by most laser specialists. Our Cape Town Laser Vision facility upgraded to the WaveLight EX500, making it the most up-to-date laser in Southern Africa at the time of writing. Older lasers tend to cause spherical aberration by flattening the centre of the cornea more than the peripheral cornea, this can affect the quality of vision and affect night vision. These effects are mild and improve after 3-6 months. The protein is arranged to let light pass through and focus on the retina. Scientists do know that a cataract won't spread from one eye to the other, although many people develop cataracts in both eyes. A cataract is a cloudy area in the eye's lens that can cause vision problems. If these measures don't help, surgery is the only effective treatment. For example, if it prevents examination or treatment of another eye problem such as age-related macular degeneration or diabetic retinopathy, a cataract should be treated. More than 90 percent of people who have cataract surgery have better vision afterward. Intraocular lens: An IOL is a clear, acrylic lens that is placed in your eye during cataract surgery. A few people cannot have an IOL because their eye structure isn't suitable, or they have certain other eye diseases. These tests include measurement of the length of the eye and curvature of the cornea (the clear, dome-like structure that protects the front of the eye) and the shape of the eye. Most people who have cataract surgery can go home the same day. The healing eye needs time to adjust so that it can focus properly with the other eye-especially if the other eye has a cataract. How long it will be before you can see normally depends on the vision in your other eye, the lens substitute you choose, and your vision before surgery. Although we don't know how to protect against cataracts, people over the age of 60 are at risk for many vision problems. This kind of exam allows your eye care professional to check for signs of age-related macular degeneration, glaucoma, cataracts, and other vision disorders.
