How long does intraocular lens surgery take?

Intraocular Lens Surgery, also known as IOL Surgery or cataract surgery, typically takes about 15-30 minutes per eye, depending on the type of IOL being implanted and the specific surgical technique being used.

• The actual surgery is usually done under local anesthesia and the patient is awake during the procedure.
• The recovery time also varies depending on the type of surgery and the individual, but most people are able to return to normal activities within a few days.
