Cataract Surgery Options
The only way to get rid of a cataract is to surgically remove the clouded lens and replace it with an intraocular lens implant (IOL). At the Filutowski Eye Institute, we craft a unique surgical plan for each patient based off of your visual needs and goals.
We offer two types of treatment plans to our patients.

Cataract Surgery Pricing
