What Is Laser Cataract Surgery (LCS)
Laser Cataract Surgery (LCS) is relatively newer (2011) technology that may add improvements when combined with the CustomCorrection™ surgery. At Roholt Vision Institute, we have always been in the forefront of advancements in eye surgery, and the doctors here have experience with LCS. We can offer LCS to patients who desire CustomCorrection™ eye surgery, at any one of our three locations, Canton, Alliance, or Canfield, and perform the LCs at Surgery Alliance. The outcomes utilizing this technology, when used with the premium intraocular lens are better, with reduced chance of astigmatism than with the Basic surgery.
This procedure is a safe, effective addition to current, state-of-art techniques such as Roholt Vision Institute’s CustomCorrection™. We will look at what LCS does, then examine recent research.

The staff was wonderful. This was the first time in many eye appointments (in the last few years) that my 93 year old mother with cognitive impairment had a successful physical eye exam. The doctor and student doctor won her trust and were superb in relating to her in a way she could somewhat understand. I was happy to see her smiling. This was the first time we came to this office in Alliance. We will definitely come back, LORD willing.

How LCS Works
The basic concept of LCS is to use the following three major components: docking, optical aiming, and femtosecond laser. A vacuum docking system that connects the laser to the eye. It is similar to the suction device used for LASIK or bladeless LASIK. An imaging device in the system takes detailed pictures to plan the surgery. The last component is using the laser, which can perform the corneal and lens capsule incisions and softens up the cataract
How Is The Procedure Performed
In Laser Cataract Surgery, or LCS, the procedure is performed as follows: the treatment plan is loaded into a computer, drops are administered, the eye is docked, the laser first cuts the incisions (into the eye and on the lens capsule). Then the patient is brought to the operating room so the cataract can be removed, and the lens implant placed in the usual manner. LCS takes slightly longer because, although some steps are performed automatically, the patient usually needs to be transferred from the laser to the operating room, in addition to the laser procedure.
LCS Surgery Vs. CustomCorrection™ Cataract Surgery
At Roholt Vision Institute, the advanced CustomCorrection™ (CC) procedures can be performed with or without LCS. With LCS the added benefits are: incisions are very precise, the cataract lens capsule opening is perfectly round and centered (similar to the Zepto also used at Roholt Vision Institute for CC). Less energy is used to remove the cataract with LCS. Postop Day One corneal swelling is less than Basic surgery. Visual results after surgery with the use of the LCS Laser are generally better and more predictable than Basic surgery.
Will Insurance Cover LCS Cataract Surgery
The additional cost for the use of this technology is an out-of-pocket expense for the patient since it is not covered by Medicare or Private Insurance Companies.
