IN THIS VIDEO, PROF MOHAMMED MUHTASEB EXPLAINS WHY HIS APPROACH IS UNIQUE

What makes Mohammed Muhtaseb‘s approach unique?

One of the important aspects of what I do and one of the real drivers for me undertaking my practice is that I absolutely want to ensure that every patient gets a full range of information about the kind of procedures that are available to them, regarding refractive cataract surgery and refractive lens exchange surgery. In particular, I want them to understand the range of lens implant options that are available to them, what the suitability criteria are, what they can achieve after the surgery, and what can be achieved in terms of correcting near-site, long sight and astigmatism.

I feel that getting the knowledge preoperatively, prevents any disappointment, and that’s a real driver for me, doing what I do, in the way that I do it.

There’s a great deal of disappointment if a patient has a perfectly successful cataract operation with a monofocal lens implant, and then finds out later that multifocal lens implants exist. They discover that they could have had something that gives them a greater degree of freedom from glasses, so they don’t have to wear them for reading and to use the computer. I see patients who have been in that position and then come to me to try and correct it.

I invite you to book a consultation to determine your suitability for refractive cataract surgery or refractive lens exchange. It’s the only way to determine your suitability for these procedures and to have an in-depth discussion regarding the risks and benefits of each of them. I look forward to seeing you there and taking you through the journey to achieving your desired postoperative outcome.
