Presbyopia and Cataracts.
Time Won't Reverse Them.

Our eyes work tirelessly every day and are among the
first parts of the body th show signs of aging

Cataracts Are No Longer Limited to Older Adults.
An increasing number of people in their
40s and 50s are now developing cataracts.

According to the National Health Insurance Service,
cataract surgery was the most commonly performed
surgical procedure in South Korea in 2019.

  • 520,000
  • 500,000
  • 480,000
  • 460,000

  • 469,032

The number of cataract patients increased by 20.24% over three years,
representing one of the fastest growth rates among major surgical procedures.

Cataracts and Presbyopia Often Occur Together.
A cataract develops when the eye's natural lens gradually becomes cloudy,
leading to blurred vision. Presbyopia occurs when the eye's natural
lens gradually loses its elasticity, making it difficult to focus on nearby objects.

Cataracts may cause symptoms such as blurred vision, double vision, glare, halos, or a foggy field of vision. Because these symptoms can be mistaken for normal age-related vision changes, regular comprehensive eye examinations are essential for early diagnosis and treatment.

    • Definition of Presbyopia
    • Presbyopia: A Natural Part of Aging
    • Presbyopia is the gradual loss of your eye's ability
      to focus on nearby objects as you age. Rather than a disease,
      it is a natural age-related change caused by the gradual
      loss of flexibility in the eye's natural lens.
    • What Are Cataracts?
    • Cataracts: Clouding of the Eye's Natural Lens
    • A cataract is a condition in which the eye's natural lens
      becomes cloudy, causing blurred or hazy vision.
      Cataracts usually develop gradually, so many people
      do not notice changes in their vision at first.
      Symptoms vary depending on the severity and location of the cataract.
      When vision begins to interfere with daily activities,
      cataract surgery is a safe and effective treatment that can restore clear vision.

CENTURION® Vision System

Designed for Safety, Precision, and Patient Comfort
LENSAR® Femtosecond Laser System for Cataract Surgery

FEMTO SECOND

LENS AR

  • About a 10-Minute Procedure

  • Rapid Recovery

  • Enhanced Tissue Preservation

  • Advanced 3D Biometric Analysis

This ultra-precise femtosecond laser delivers
pulses lasting just one quadrillionth of a second.
By minimizing energy delivered to surrounding tissue,
it helps reduce corneal trauma and the risk of
surgical complications while enabling a faster,
more comfortable procedure.

Near-Zero Energy Technology

Traditional cataract surgery typically requires
ultrasound energy to break up and remove the clouded lens.
In contrast, the LENSAR femtosecond laser pre-fragments the cataract,
significantly reducing the amount of ultrasound energy
required during surgery. This helps reduce the risk of
corneal edema and endothelial cell damage while promoting a safer,
more comfortable surgical experience.

Femtosecond Laser-Assisted Cataract Surgery

Conventional Cataract Surgery

Personalized Surgical Planning

Using a comprehensive 3D reconstruction of each
patient's unique ocular anatomy—including the
precise curvature, position, and tilt of the cornea
and crystalline lens—the system enables highly precise
laser treatment tailored to each patient's individual anatomy.

LENSAR LASER

LENSAR Femtosecond Laser Technology

Laser-Assisted Cataract Surgery

From precise corneal incisions to cataract
fragmentation—all with a single laser platform.

The LENSAR laser creates a precise, perfectly centered capsulotomy
in just a few seconds before pre-fragmenting the cataract.
By minimizing the amount of energy delivered to the eye,
it helps reduce ultrasound energy requirements while promoting
a more comfortable procedure and faster visual recovery.

Greater Comfort

Faster Recovery

Because cataracts do not typically recur and modern
intraocular lenses (IOLs) are designed to last a lifetime,
cataract surgery is generally a once-in-a-lifetime procedure.

Surgical Process

  • Laser Capsulotomy
    Creates a precise, perfectly centered circular opening in the lens capsule

  • Laser Lens Fragmentation
    Pre-fragments the cataract to reduce ultrasound energy during surgery

  • Lens Removal
    The fragmented cataract is gently removed through a small incision.

  • IOL Implantation & Positioning
    A customized intraocular lens (IOL) is implanted and precisely positioned.

Trusted Expertise
for Exceptional Cataract Care

Successful cataract surgery depends on
precise surgical techniques and the accurate
placement of the selected intraocular lens (IOL).
An experienced surgical team plays a critical
role in achieving safe procedures and optimal visual outcomes.
