Does Lens Replacement Surgery Hurt?SAMER HAMADA REVEALS WHY LENS REPLACEMENT IS NOT A PAINFUL PROCEDURELens replacement surgery is exactly like cataract surgery, where the surgery is done under topical anaesthesia. It is not a painful operation, as we put drops in the eye at the start of the surgery. These drops numb the eye. It stings a little bit, but very soon, the eye will be very comfortable.The whole process of the surgery takes about 10 to 15 minutes, and it is very comfortable. Patients rarely complain about any pain during the operation. If anything, they describe it to be a different experience or a little bit uncomfortable, but it is not a painful procedure.Share This Story, Choose Your Platform!.fusion-sharing-box-2 .tagline{margin-bottom:0 !important;}.fusion-sharing-box-2{flex-direction:row !important;}@media only screen and (max-width:1024px){.fusion-sharing-box-2 .tagline{margin-right:0.5em !important;margin-bottom:0 !important;}.sharingbox-shortcode-icon-wrapper-2{width:auto !important;justify-content:flex-end !important;}.fusion-sharing-box-2{align-items:center !important;} }@media only screen and (max-width:640px){.fusion-sharing-box-2{flex-direction:row !important;align-items:center !important;}.fusion-sharing-box-2 .tagline{margin-right:0.5em !important;margin-bottom:0 !important;}.sharingbox-shortcode-icon-wrapper-2{width:auto !important;justify-content:space-between !important;} }.fusion-widget-area-2 {padding:0px 0px 0px 0px;}.fusion-widget-area-2 .widget h4 {color:#252525;}.fusion-widget-area-2 .widget .heading h4 {color:#252525;} Search for: Recent Posts What Is Blepharitis?
