Choosing The Best Cataract Surgeon

A A A

When it’s time for cataract surgery1, choosing the right eye surgeon is an important decision. It could mean the difference between an acceptable outcome and a great one in Southern California. Finding an experienced, successful surgeon is particularly important if you want to decrease your need for eyeglasses after your cataract procedure.

Freedom from eyeglasses after cataract surgery requires the use of premium intraocular lenses (IOLs) 2that may require your cataract surgeon to have special expertise and experience with this sort of IOL to ensure a good outcome. Here are some tips from our Huntington Beach cornea and refractive surgical team on finding the best cataract surgeon for you:

Board-Certified Doctor

Look for a surgeon who is qualified to practice ophthalmology such as Dr. Samir Shah, who is a licensed and board-certified surgical ophthalmologist in Huntington Beach, CA. Dr. Shah completed additional studying and training in refractive corneal surgery following his residency training in ophthalmology. His extensive training and advanced education make him the foremost expert in both ophthalmology and corneal surgery.

Training and Credentials

With the additional 3 years Dr. Shah spent in studying and training in refractive corneal surgery, he is considered a specialist in the complex areas of refractive and cataract surgery. The national average complication rate in ophthalmology surgery is 2-3%, whereas Dr. Shah’s complication rate is under 0.5%. This is why Orange County’s Dr. Samir Shah was voted by his peers as one of America’s Top Ophthalmologists and Leading Physicians of the World.

Technology

For the best outcome, you should choose a surgeon who is up to date with the newest technology available for eye care. At Beach Eye Medical Group in Huntington Beach, CA, we use the latest technologies to correct your vision. We use tested devices on our patients that we know will provide excellent results, and these technologies allow us to customize your treatment to be as unique as your own fingerprint.

Patient Reviews

Patient reviews and testimonials are the best way to learn about a surgeon’s success rate, practice, and personality. There are plenty of resources online that share patient reviews of surgeons in Southern California and elsewhere in the world. At Beach Eye Medical Group, you will find that Dr. Shah is advanced in his field, and the surgeon doctors choose when it’s time to care for their own eyes.

Communication

Above all, find a surgeon you feel comfortable with. A surgeon’s ability to properly communicate the benefits and risks of eye surgery is vital. A good surgeon should be able to guide you through the entire process.

I've been getting my eyes checked every year for 10 years as a Type 1 diabetic. Literally I would walk in they would put some eyedrops in my eyes to dilate my pupils and 10 minutes later the doctor will check my eyes for five minutes and tell me they were in great shape, which they are.

Well my first visit to Beach Eye and I was literally there for 45 minutes being checked and rechecked with all kinds of different machines and tests. I was more than impressed by the thoroughness of what they do. They even took photos of my eyes and showed me how healthy they were and that I wasn't having any problems.

I would highly recommend.
