Dr. Arturo Chayet Discusses IOL Surgery in Exclusive Interview with Univision

Dr. Arturo Chayet recently appeared in interviews with Univision and Milenio TV, where he provided valuable insights into IOL Surgery, including the procedure itself, the ideal age range for candidates, and the cutting-edge technology used at CODET Vision Institute to deliver exceptional results.

What is IOL Surgery?

IOL Surgery involves the removal of the eye’s natural lens, which is then replaced with an Intraocular Lens (IOL) designed to correct common vision issues like myopia (nearsightedness), hyperopia (farsightedness), and astigmatism. Although IOL surgery is most commonly performed as part of cataract removal, it is also used to treat presbyopia (age-related farsightedness) as a refractive procedure.

Ideal Candidates for IOL Surgery

According to Dr. Chayet, the ideal candidate for IOL surgery is typically someone over 50 years old, with 55 being the preferred age, who struggles with poor distance vision due to cataracts or presbyopia.

Key Features of IOL Surgery

• Robotic Microsurgery: The procedure is assisted by laser technology and guided by artificial intelligence, utilizing the most advanced IOL technology for precise outcomes.
• Painless and Quick: The surgery is completely painless, typically lasting no more than ten minutes, and allows patients to return to their normal activities almost immediately after the procedure.

Dr. Chayet emphasizes that IOL surgery is the most commonly performed procedure worldwide, with over 30 million surgeries conducted annually. The success of IOL surgery is bolstered by advanced technology, ensuring optimal precision and excellent results for patients.

Advanced Technology at CODET Vision Institute

• Advanced Diagnostics: Using the Heidelberg Anterion OCT for the most accurate intraocular lens calculation, CODET Vision Institute guarantees precision in measurements and results.
• Precision Surgery: The Ziemer Femto LDV Z8 Femtosecond Laser is used to enhance surgical outcomes and patient safety, elevating the level of care provided during the procedure.
  

“We use the most advanced technology available globally,” explains Dr. Chayet. “Robots, femtosecond lasers, and AI-powered software have brought a level of precision never seen before in these procedures.”

The Life-Changing Benefits of IOL Surgery

Dr. Chayet concludes by highlighting the life-changing benefits of IOL surgery. “It’s incredibly frustrating not being able to see well without glasses. We often find ourselves searching for them—whether for using the computer, driving, or even simple tasks like cooking. The freedom of not needing glasses and being able to see naturally has transformed the lives of so many people.”

With its cutting-edge technology, expert care, and life-changing outcomes, IOL surgery at CODET Vision Institute is helping patients regain their vision and enjoy a more active, independent life.
