In this video, I hope to shed light a...

Thanks Doc! Greetings from Poland.
I have a very severe astigmatism ..I am planning to have cataract surgery in Jan and was informed they could not correct my astigmatism completely due to it being so bad lol....they could reduce it and id still need correction (glasses) .... I am wondering if its beneficial for me to have them correct what they can, as I do suffer with distortion, especially when I'm super active..even driving at night. I just want to improve my vision and am willing to take any correction offered even if need glasses...I just want to be sure it will improve my vision if I'm paying 1700.00 and eye.... SO my question is id it a benefit to me to get the Toric leses even if it doesn't fully correct my astigmatism?? Id be so thankful for a reply here....or if anyone else has had this experience, they cld give me the pro's or cons :) Did you benefit from it?
i had cataract surgery before 1 week and i see double image , or a reflection in all lights in night. ( i have monofocal lens for distance sight). Is any way to fix it or have clear vision?
that Ora machine device must cost $$million$$ ... so not many if any hardly practices would could have them . but yur in Rancho Mirage CA super hiend PalmSprings desert resort millionaire $$$ retirees live there resort$$$ place.. so C'mon doc .. get real
🎉 hi doctor i have diabetes can i qualify for panoptix Lens please advise me please
Thanks for explaining this. That Uday Devgan channel doesn’t do a good job explaining it
Great video and thanks for the information. My question is: is it worth to tackle the astigmatism and the catarract separately? I.e. correct the astigmatism via LASIK and then use a non-toric IOL for the catarract? And not necessarily in that order? I can see an obvious disadvantage to that: 2 surgeries on the eye as opposed to 1. But perhaps the end result can end up better? I’m thinking that if the astigmatism is cleared out via LASIK, then perhaps better choices would open up for IOLs.
They don’t tell you about having a detached retina after this surgery. Nobody reports this so there is no record. Beware if you find more floaters you are not a candidate for yag surgery.
Are Eye Floaters similar in bio matter to the material in Capsule Opacification ?
I found your explanation to be the best I've ever heard; I am 71. Wish you were my doctor!
Will you see halo light in your eyes months later
What if you slready have posteriors sub cats first and got front ones later [double cats], can you fix all of it at once post and anterior
Thank you for your response. In Indiana, mine cost approximately $900 less. your response made me feel fortunate as I am just a middle class person.
it is now Oct 2024. Thank you for the great video explaining Astigmatism and the Toric lenses to correct this in the eyes. I go in for my measurements in a couple of days and planning to go for the Mono Focal lenses for "Distance". I know I have an Astigmatism in the eyes and will discuss recommendations with the Doctor on best way to go. Insurance does not cover the high cost of Astigmatism lenses, so if I can do the same thing with additional glasses, I will go that route. Thanks for the video. Take care.
Thank you for the demonstration. I feel better now as I am going to have my right eye done on the 25 th October.
This is just what I had done as an Emergancy due to my type one diabetes my pressure was at a 60 extremely painful
Bummer, I don’t own any long pants.
I wear contacts and I’m so thankful this never happened to me! I’m extremely cautious with them .. I don’t sleep with them , I don’t rub my eyes too much , like you have to be extremely careful or that might happen..
He has happy eyes
I'm getting this IOL in a couple weeks. My surgeon will also be using the ORA machine to check that my desired refractive target matches up with the lens power. This video makes me appreciate the skill necessary for cataract surgery...Steady hands!
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you, very informative. Too bad I live in MD. I certainly would like to be seen by you. Can you recommend someone in Maryland?
While we don’t know anyone personally in your area, we do have many patients that travel from out of town to have surgery here in Rancho Mirage, California. You can find more information on our website for out of town patients or by calling our office and speaking to our out-of-town Patient Liaison, Rebecca, at (760)340-4700. www.desertvisioncenter.com/location/out-of-town-patients/
Thank you so much for this video!
Glad it was helpful!
This is a great video. Thank you!
It is harmful?
Very helpful and informative. 🙂
Glad it was helpful!
Is it important to have the same dr do the YAG laser capsulotomy as did the cataract surgery? If the original cataract surgeon is unavailable, what should one look for in a surgeon to do the YAG laser capsulotomy?
What about if monofocal lens are recommended what should be the target focal distance given my lifestyle?
Pwede ba sa 12yrs old with red eye
Unethical post , in my opinion, Almost all Ophthalmologist encounter Complications including yourself
Do you have to have ORA for both eyes to get good vision? I did not have it in my left eye and now I’m getting my right eye and my doctor wants me to get ORA.
Thank for the video
You're welcome
Ok i would not wear contact lenses with this if this happens to me Edit:8 CONTACT LENSES?? THATS CRAZYY
Iris damage can be prevented or lessened but it's sometimes inevitable. You acting as if it's somehow always a results of the surgeons ineptitude is going to bite you in the ass eventually.
You seem to be comparing Dr. Tokuhara to the average cataract surgeon. He’s not the average cataract surgeon.
Thank You. Excellent educational video. I had cataract surgery on my left eye 6 weeks ago. I have one Vivity Toric IOL lens for my left eye AND A vivity IOL in my right eye for one week now. My right eye is still trying to adjust and settle down and my right eye seems fine. I can feel the Toric lens but I do t feel the one in my right eye. I am told this is normal
I meant to say the right eye has the Vivity IOL and I do not feel it like I do the Toric lens in my right eye
Dr. Tokuhara, you mention that the "likes" will increase the visibility of your videos. I believe engagement from your end will also bump your videos up, as they should be. You provide great explanations and make these procedures easy to understand. I'm a victim of a botched cataract surgery, ruptured the capsule, then instead of the multifocal I was counting on, he put in a near lens with the incorrect power. I am able to focus about 12" from my face while years earlier he had done Lasik and made that my distance eye. Big screw up. Looking for a doctor with your expertise in the Southeast. Any recommendations?
I had undergone this surgery last week.This video clearly made understand what capsulotomy is.Thank you doctor.
Glad it was helpful!
Thanks for posting such an informative and simple to understand video for us laymen!
Glad it was helpful!
You're retina-trained; why are you doing just cataract surgery?
Dr. Tokuhara is a medical retina specialist. His surgical expertise is and has always been anterior segment.
Choose a cataract surgeon who can do laser surgery if lens power is miscalculated or make sure they have a policy to pay for a laser surgery to repair the miscalculated lens.
I have a Toric monofocal lens in my right eye and its perfect. My left eye is due in another 6 months (NHS appointment) they do not have the toric lens but only the basic monofocal lens. The doctor said my astigmatism is very low so I will not nee the toric lens. What do I do - do I go private and insist on the toric lens?
This caught my attention when I had it done😅
