  • Cataract consultations

When you have your cataract removed, there are a dizzying array of choices including the type of intraocular lenses (multifocal, light adjustable lens *LAL*, monofocal, monovision, myopic, presbyopic accommodating, extended focus), surgical techniques (laser femto vs. manual), surgeons (high volume surgeon vs. low volume), and facilities (large academic or private institutions vs. HMO) that available to replace the natural lens. Each of these choices come with it’s own set of advantages and disadvatages. Dr. Fishman will take the time in a relaxed setting to guide you through the procedure, thoroughly test for existing eye conditions, assist with pre- and post-op care as desired, and try to provide you with an agnostic opinion.

Dr. Fishman has extensive past experience in complex cataract surgeries, secondary lens implants, new technology lenses and laser-based techniques for cataract surgery.  Dr. Fishman is also is a technology consultant on emerging lenses and surgical procedures.  He leverages his experience to offer the “360 degree” cataract consultation and provides in depth, detailed recommendations on surgeons, intraocular lenses, refractive options, and techniques that best fit his patient’s needs.  Dr. Fishman provides unbiased consults (no surgery) and is thus able to provide an “uber” plan to guide and help in understanding the complex procedure and options.
