Secondary Implants

There are some people who have had their cataracts removed in the past without the placement of an intraocular lens. There are many reasons why this may have been done. The patient most likely wore thick glasses or contact lenses to restore vision. If the glasses or contacts cannot be tolerated, sometimes, an intraocular lens can be inserted later. Only your Ophthalmologist can determine if this is feasible.
