Frequently Asked Questions about the new 3D cataract surgery 

Wang Vision Cataract and LASIK Center, Nashville, Tennessee

Q: What is 3D cataract surgery?

A: “3D cataract surgery " is short for "3D image-guided premium Forever Young cataract surgery using a 3D high-definition, stereoscopic microsurgical system".

Q: How is the 3D cataract surgery different than the traditional cataract surgery?

A: In traditional 2D cataract surgery, the surgeon looks through a surgical microscope with the naked eye. What you see is what you get. There is no image processing or signal enhancement. Therefore, since the eyeball is small, there is limited resolution, precision and accuracy in the surgical procedure.

In contrast, for the new 3D image-guided, premium Forever Young cataract surgery, the surgeon wears a pair of 3D glasses and uses a 3D high-definition, stereoscopic microsurgical system to perform the cataract surgery. It provides a more precise and accurate correction of astigmatism, thus enhancing the quality of cataract surgery and visual out come in our patients.

Q: Is Wang Vision the only center in TN to offer this 3D cataract surgery technology? If so, why is WV uniquely involved in introducing this technology?

A: Yes, not only was Dr. Wang the first in the state to perform 3D cataract surgery, but WV is also the WV is the ONLY center in the state that offers this 3D cataract surgery technology.

Dr. Ming Wang, a Harvard & MIT graduate (MD, magna cum laude), is one of the few cataract and LASIK surgeons in the world today who holds a doctorate degree in laser physics. He has always been at the forefront of the development of new breakthrough eye surgery technologies. The new 3D image-guided premium Forever Young cataract surgery technology is the latest example of new eye surgeries that Dr. Wang has introduced to TN, and to the world.  

Q: I am very interested in the new 3D cataract surgery, but do I have to pay more for the 3D upgrade than I do for regular cataract surgery?

A: Though the 3D image-guided surgery normally costs $2,000 per patient, as an introductory offer. So call Wang Vision Cataract & LASIK Center today to schedule your consultation for 3D cataract surgery!
