Eric J. Poulsen, MD is board-certified eye physician and surgeon who specializes in the most advanced techniques for treating cataracts.

If you're 60 to 80 years of age you'll be happy to know that Dr. Poulsen can treat and remove cataracts using leading-edge treatment techniques such as ultrasound and laser technology.  The method Dr. Poulsen uses is so advanced, the procedure is pain-free and no stitches are needed. Most patients who have cataract surgery can return almost immediately to all but the most strenuous activities, provided they see us periodically to ensure proper healing of the eye.  The diagnoses of cataracts and treatment recommendations, which may involve surgery, are based on the specific individual needs of the patient.

What is Cataract Surgery?

• Cataract surgery is a delicate, yet safe, outpatient procedure that replaces the clouded lens inside the eye with a clear intraocular lens implant.

• Using A-scan ultrasound, Dr. Poulsen ensures that the cataract implant is a correct fit and vaporizes the cloudy membrane to restore visual clarity.
