Small Incision Cataract Surgery
Small Incision Cataract Surgery (SICS) is a safe and effective procedure used to remove a cataract and restore clearer vision. In this technique, the cloudy natural lens is removed through a small self-sealing incision and replaced with an artificial intraocular lens. It is commonly advised when cataracts begin to affect daily activities such as reading, driving, or recognising faces. SICS is especially useful in patients with mature or dense cataracts and offers good visual outcomes with a reliable recovery process. At Moolchand, cataract care is supported by experienced eye specialists, advanced diagnostics, and structured pre- and post-operative care.
Our team of globally acclaimed super specialists has pioneered several small incision cataract surgery surgeries.

Pediatric cataract surgery
Pediatric cataract surgery is the surgical removal of a cloudy lens from a child's eye, performed urgently when vision-threatening opacity is present, to prevent amblyopia (lazy eye) and enable normal visual development through lens implantation or optical rehabilitation.
Phacoemulsification and stitch-less foldable lens implantation surgery
Phacoemulsification with stitch-less foldable intraocular lens (IOL) implantation is the gold standard modern cataract surgery — using ultrasound energy to emulsify the cloudy lens through a tiny self-sealing incision, followed by implantation of a foldable artificial lens, restoring clear vision without sutures.
Refractive cataract surgery
Refractive cataract surgery combines cataract removal with advanced premium intraocular lens (IOL) implantation to simultaneously treat cataracts and correct refractive errors such as myopia, hyperopia, astigmatism, and presbyopia, reducing or eliminating dependence on glasses.
