Our state-of-the-art eye hospital in Mumbai proudly features the Alcon Centurion Phacoemulsification System, renowned as one of the industry’s most advanced and prestigious machines. While it stands as a significant investment, its unmatched capabilities make it a game-changer in cataract surgery.
With the Alcon Centurion, our patients benefit from the pinnacle of precision and safety. This cutting-edge machine utilizes state-of-the-art ultrasound technology to delicately emulsify the clouded lens, enabling our skilled ophthalmologists to remove it with utmost accuracy through a minimal incision.
Its sophisticated fluidics and energy modulation features set the Centurion apart from standard machines. These innovations provide our surgeons with:
Phacoemulsification (often called "Phaco") is a modern cataract surgery method. It involves using an ultrasonic device to break up and remove the cloudy lens from the eye, which is then replaced with a clear artificial lens (IOL).
